Donald Judd

Untitled 
by 
Donald Judd
This work by Donal Judd was one of the earliest out of the minimalist movement. I highly appreciate simplistic art like this due to its clean structure and varying sizes. I have even been inspired by this particular piece for my own work as my final in Art 107. The main purpose of this art is to show off the construction of the piece as well as the space it provides.  Judd began his career as a painter through surrealism then moved onto working with woodcuts.  These woodcuts went from figurative to very abstract, then the concentration of the work was as stated above the construction of the piece rather than a particular representation.
