Donald Judd: Paintings was an unprecedented presentation of fourteen works created between 1959 and 1961—a crucial period inthe artist’s development during which Judd experimented with forms and motifs that later evolved into the three-dimensional works for which he is best known.
Curated by Flavin Judd, curator and co-president ofJudd Foundation, ICA Miami director Ellen Salpeter, and ICA Miami deputy director and chief curator Alex Gartenfeld, the exhibition offered new insight into the artist’s work through his painterly investigations into surface, structure, space, color, and pattern. Also on view is a floor work from 1964.
"Many of these pieces have not been seen by the public ever, and what an opportunity for us," Salpeter told the Miami New Times.
The exhibition was accompanied by a catalogue featuring new writing about the artist’s work.
