Lawrence Weschler’s Seeing Is Forgetting The Name Of The Thing One Sees: A Life of Contemporary Artist Robert Irwin and True to Life: Twenty-Five Years of Conversations with David Hockney are essential for an understanding of those artists’ thinking, the trajectories of their careers, and the impacts of their work.

Pop Artist Robert Indiana was commissioned to design the basketball floor for the Milwaukee Exposition Convention Center and Arena (MECCA).
