Description: "[David Ireland was] a conceptual artist whose quiet embrace of life-as-art made him a beloved guru in the Bay Area and a highly admired freethinker in international art circles."
--Suzanne Muchnic, Los Angeles Times

"Ireland, who died in 2009 at age 78, was a Bay Area pioneer. His large pieces are in the collections of modern art museums from San Francisco to New York. But his most ambitious creation was his two-story home/open studio/sculpture in progress at the southwest corner of Capp and 20th streets, in the Mission."
--Sam Whiting, San Francisco Chronicle

Review Quotes: "Constance Lewallen has created a detailed, generously illustrated guide to this 'cabinet of wonders' . . . a valuable accompaniment to visiting Ireland's house at 500 Capp Street."--Sally B. Woodbridge "SFAQ" (5/8/2015 12:00:00 AM)
