Style Notes

This fully illustrated volume is the most comprehensive exploration of Donald Judd's paintings and early works to date, providing unparalleled insight into the pivotal seven-year period in which the revered artist transitioned from two to three dimensions.

Donald Judd's radical work and thinking helped shape the look of the late twentieth century and continues to influence artists, architects, and designers worldwide. He exercised a transformative influence over the ways in which both art objects and practical designs are produced, exhibited, encountered, and used.

While primarily known for his three-dimensional sculptural work, most notably his famed "stacks" and "progressions" series, Judd began life as a painter. Between 1957 and 1963 he produced around eighty works on canvas: distinctive explorations of line, colour, and non-representational composition that would directly inform the iconic three-dimensional objects that followed.

Eileen Costello, historian of modern and contemporary art, discusses Judd's eventual rejection of, or transition from, the canvas in favour of the sculptural form. Sarah K. Rich, an associate professor of art history at PennState, Pennsylvania, and director of its Center for Virtual/Material Studies, deconstructs and analyses Judd's painterly technique and the resulting works on canvas. Lynn Zelevansky, historian, curator, and former Henry J. Heinz II Director of the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, provides an overview of the period and the peers alongside whom Judd was formulating his paintings and early works.
