If I say to you, you can make something,
00:04
and it is going to be so beautiful,
00:07
the best thing you've ever done.
00:09
Only one problem.
00:10
It's only going to last for 20 minutes.
00:13
There are too many things to say about why Robert Irwin
00:18
is so important to the history of art,
00:21
even though so many people involved in art
00:24
have never seen a work.
00:28
When you're making art,
00:30
there's a very strong commitment to the idea of permanence.
00:33
Bob was making it so hard for people to know the work.
00:38
He had stopped making exhibitable artworks.
00:42
Those were complicated times.
00:44
I got rid of the studio.
00:46
I have dismantled the thing.
00:49
It's not that you're just removing something,
00:51
but you're going deeper into something else.
00:56

01:04

What I do is respond.
01:09
He would go anywhere, anytime, for anyone.
01:13
He was able to use any kind of space
01:19
and see an artwork in it.
01:24
Where is art? Where do we look to find art?
01:28
He created a very different path
01:30
about what it meant to be an artist.
01:32
His art can engage anybody on a very visceral level.
01:37
I feel, therefore I think, therefore I am.
01:46

01:54
What's that one feeling you get when you're in this space?
01:57
Well, I'm not going to tell you.
02:00
I'll let you figure it out.
