Judd

"Judd", published to accompany the first US retrospective exhibition of Donald Judd's sculpture in over 30 years, provides a comprehensive exploration of the work of this American maverick.

Donald Judd, a key figure in the minimalist art movement of the 1960s, sought to eliminate illusion, narrative, and metaphorical content from his art.

The book traces the evolution of Judd's work, beginning with his early paintings and handmade objects in the 1960s, through his iconic three-dimensional works such as hollow boxes, stacks, and progressions created with industrial materials.

The catalog delves into various aspects of Judd's career, including his engagement with color in the last decade of his life, site-specific pieces, and his work in design and architecture.

With rich illustrations and essays that offer scholarly perspectives, the book provides a detailed and insightful look at Judd's contributions to modern sculpture.
