Donald Judd was an American artist known for his minimalist sculpture. <\/span>Early in the 1960s reacting to what he called the ” illusion <\/em>” in abstract painting Donald Judd began to create art that used ” real materials existing in real space <\/em>“. He did not attempt to deliver his own political or social messages, but insisted his goal was to focus on the space occupied and created by his objects – their purity of form. This style of art was called minimalism, and Judd was one of it’s greatest proponents. He became well known for sleek, boxlike constructions made of industrial materials such as plywood, sheet metal, and plexiglass that were painted using commercial techniques. Stacked, aligned, cantilevered, or centered, their strict geometric arrangements eliminated the idea of composition and achieved a singular focus on the object itself. Although his art is resolutely three-dimensional, Judd refused to call them sculpture, a term he associated with the hand-crafted art of an earlier era. Instead, he referred to them as “specific objects<\/em>“–a phrase meant to suggest their neutral and unique nature.<\/p>\n
