| Born in Excelsior Springs, Missouri, Donald Judd became an artist whose writings and works were crucial to the emergence of a new form of three-dimensional art, which he referred to as "specific objects." His legacy is that of simplicity, "all of art history pared down to the basic geometric module of a box made of industrial materials" (ARTNews 5/99). He rejected the symbolism and emotive work of the abstract expressionists, based on free-wheeling use of color, and injected industrial materials (showing 500 of 1644 characters). |
