Robert Irwin: A Desert of Pure Feeling offers an intimate portrait of one of America’s most influential and unconventional artists. Beginning as a painter in Los Angeles, Irwin ultimately abandoned traditional art making to explore light, space, perception, and the nature of human experience.

A thought-provoking and visually captivating journey, the film invites us to see and experience the world with fresh eyes.
