• Seeing Is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees Robert Irwin & Lawrence Weschler

    Sonorisms I

    the authenticity of the gesture
    as if the air had taken on substance
    representation and re-presentation
    a first order of presence
    this painterly game of pick-up sticks
    Irwin's "fetish finish"
    questions all of whose possible answers would never exhaust them
    the art is what has happened to the viewer
    an art of things not looked at
    a dialogue of immanence
    the information that takes place between things
    your house is the last before the infinite
    his "project of general peripatetic availability"
    that shiver of perception perceiving itself
    a desert of pure feeling
