The 2016 Burt and Deedee McMurtry Lecture features distinguished guest artist, ROBERT IRWIN who speaks about perception as the fundamental issue of art. Irwin, who began his career as a painter in the 1950s and became the pioneer of the L.A.-based “Light and Space” movement in the 1960s, has, through a continual breaking down of the frame, come to regard the role of art as “conditional,” or something that works in and responds to the specific surrounding world of experience.
