Found art in the Keys
![<em style="i">The road to the Upper Keys is paved with the blaze of poincianas. So far we have passed their painted red tops, pressed against the Turnpike's seam, along with nurseries and palm farms, houses shaped like barracks, canals and lakes, and the right-veering loop into Florida City.

New Lawrence Weschler books about conversations with David Hockney and Robert Irwin
![Here's how Lawrence Weschler sees it: "The world as it is," he writes in his 2004 collection of essays and reportage, "Vermeer in Bosnia," "is overdetermined: the web of all those interrelationships is dense to the point of saturation. . . . If I were somehow to be forced to write a fiction about, say, a make-believe Caribbean island, I wouldn't know where to put it, because the Caribbean as it is is already full -- there's <i>no room </i>in it for any fictional islands. Dropping one in there would provoke a tidal wave, and all other places would be swept away."](http://www.latimes.com/media/thumbnails/story/2009-03/45794657-27125721-15070.gif "Here's how Lawrence Weschler sees it: "The world as it is,\" he writes in his 2004 collection of essays and reportage, \"Vermeer in Bosnia,\" \"is overdetermined: the web of all those interrelationships is dense to the point of saturation. . . .
