DONALD JUDD FURNITURE BOOK

This book introduces readers to the renowned artist Donald Judd’s furniture designs, initiated during the renovation of his home and studio at 101 Spring Street in New York, and as the result of the difficulty Judd later had in furnishing his home in Marfa, Texas. These furniture designs exemplify the directness of form and presence for which his artworks are celebrated, as well as offering a distinct and unadorned functionality.

In this book they are presented through detailed drawings and breakdowns of materials, and colour photography exploring their placement and function within these spaces. As well as surveying a central aspect of his work, Donald Judd Furniture details Judd’s understanding of functionality, form and his deep interest in the possibilities of design in a world of mass-production.
