Sumario: | Presentación editorial: "After spending years covering minimalist trends for leading publications, Kyle Chaka now delves beneath this lifestyle's glossy surface, seeking better ways to claim the time and space we crave. He shows that our longing for less goes back further than we realize. His search leads him to the philosophical and spiritual origins of minimalism, and to the stories of artists such as Agnes Martin and Donald Judd; composers such as John Cage and Julius Eastman; architects and designers; visionaries and misfits. As Chaka looks anew at their extraordinary lives and explores the places where they worked ... he reminds us that what we most require is presence, not absense. The result is an elegant new synthesis of our minimalist desires and our profound emotional needs."
