"[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
