Originally published in 1975, this collection of Donald Judd's writings is now a sought-after classic. His uncompromising reviews avoid the familiar generalizations so often associated with artistic styles emerging during the 1950s and 60s. Here, Judd discusses in detail the work of more than 500 artists showing in New York at that time, and provides a critical account of this significant era in American art. While addressing the social and political ramifications of art production, the writings focus on the work of Jackson Pollock, Kazimir Malevich, Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, John Chamberlain, Larry Poons, Kenneth Noland and Claes Oldenburg. His 1965 "Specific Objects" essay, a discussion of sculptural thought in the 60s, is included alongside the notorious polemical essay "Imperialism, Nationalism, Regionalism" and much else.Judd, Donald is the author of 'Complete Writings 1959-1975 Gallery Reviews, Book Reviews, Articles, Letters To The Editor, Reports, Statements, Complaints', published 2005 under ISBN 9780919616424 and ISBN 0919616429.
