David Ireland (artist)

The house was purchased by art collector by Ann Hatch in 1982 and later used as an artist residency named Capp Street Project.

[10] Ireland is most well known for creating site-specific installation art pieces; most notably, his former residence at 500 Capp Street[11] in San Francisco, where his work is also shown at Gallery Paule Anglim.

[12] Known for his wide range of materials, works are made from paint cans, phone books, metal, cement, wood and, even the skull of a water buffalo.

In 1999, Ireland collaborated with sound artist GX Jupitter-Larsen remixing and re-recording tapes from the audio archives of 500 Capp Street.
