In the early 1970s, Donald
Judd began to retreat from the New York art world, eventually transplanting
himself, his family, his studio, his library, and his work to a vast estate
in Marfa, Texas, where he sought to live the same minimal aesthetic he
created in his sculptures. The Chinati Foundation, located on grounds
formerly occupied by a military fort and prisoner-of-war camp, has become
a three-dimensional manifesto of Minimalism and an art-world pilgrimage
site. Artist and University of Minnesota art professor Thomas Rose discusses
Judd's work and talks about his own experiences visiting the Judd estate.
