| "Somewhere a portion of contemporary art
has to exist as an example of what the art and its context were meant to
be. Somewhere...a strict measure must exist for the art of this time
and place."
Donald Judd. |
"At Chinati, Donald Judd created permanent installations of contemporary art that are among the largest and most beautiful in the world." Roberta Smith, New York Times. |
