{"product_id":"9781941701195","title":"Donald Judd: Cor-Ten","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe work of Donald Judd (1928–94), one of the most significant American artists of the postwar period, has come to define Minimalist art, a label to which the artist strongly objected. Wanting to create works that could assume a direct material and physical presence without recourse to grand philosophical statements, Judd eschewed classical ideals of representational sculpture and created works that relied on clear, definite objects. \u003ci\u003eDonald Judd: Cor-ten\u003c\/i\u003e represents the first-ever focused examination of Judd’s works in Cor-ten steel, which he began to produce in earnest in 1989 and would continue to elaborate on until his death in 1994. Cor-ten is an alloy that makes steel more resistant to corrosion, and eliminates the need for paint. With its distinctive red-brown patina, Cor-ten afforded Judd a new medium for exploring the relationship between surface and volume, as well as color and form. Prior to 1989, Judd executed a handful of works in Cor-ten primarily as outdoor commissions or site-specific works. Published on the occasion of the 2015 exhibition at David Zwirner, New York, and and designed in close collaboration with Flavin Judd and Judd Foundation,\u003ci\u003eDonald Judd: Cor-ten\u003c\/i\u003e sheds new light on a body of work that represents the culmination of three decades of Judd’s output.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Zwirner Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039772983536,"sku":"9781941701195","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781941701195_p0.jpg?v=1763759019","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781941701195","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
