Above is a link to the video trailer for Marfa Voices. This video explains the work of Donald Judd, especially after his settlement in Marfa, Texas. His daughter manages the foundation that preserves his work and continues his mission. A good selection of his work is shown in the video.
I am very interested in Judd's work because of the conceptual nature of his pieces. I feel like I am forced to slow down to comprehend a Judd piece. Surely, captivating a viewer is a mark of success for any artist. I was initially interested in his work because of the stories that abound about viewers reactions to Judd's sculptures. It seems from New York galleries to the veritable Brazoria County takeover Judd invariably wins the viewer over time.
I also researched Judd because the greater extent of his body of work is so close to home for me.I think I will make the trip to interact with his sculptures in the fields of Marfa so that I may better understand the art discussed in the video Marfa Voices.
