About the Author
Donald Judd (1928-1994) was a pioneering American artist and critic whose minimalist ethos reshaped modern art and design in the mid-20th century. Born in Missouri and educated at Columbia University, Judd initially pursued writing and philosophy before turning to sculpture and installation art, famously rejecting illusionism in favor of specific objects that emphasized materiality and space. His work, including monumental steel and aluminum installations in places like Marfa, Texas, challenged traditional notions of art, influencing generations of artists. As a writer, Judd contributed incisive essays to publications like Arts Magazine, articulating his theories on perception and form. Donald Judd Interviews collects his revealing conversations, offering insights into his rigorous creative process and unyielding commitment to artistic integrity.
