Available November 12, featuring 60 interviews with the artist
Donald Judd Interviews is the first compilation of its kind, presenting sixty interviews with the artist over the course of four decades as well as a substantial body of unpublished material across a range of mediums, such as radio and film. This thoughtful collection of interviews includes Judd’s insightful critiques of his own work and the work of others such as Edward Hopper, Yayoi Kusama, Barnett Newman, and Jackson Pollock. Published by the Judd Foundation and David Zwirner Books, this is the companion volume to the critically acclaimed bestseller Donald Judd Writings.
To celebrate the new publication Donald Judd Interviews, Metrograph, Judd Foundation, and David Zwirner Books present a screening of Michael Blackwood’s documentary film, The Artist’s Studio: Donald Judd.
In addition to footage of the artist from the early 1970s, the film documents a significant long-form interview with art historian Barbara Rose, which has been included in the newly published Interviews compendium. The evening’s program will also premiere archival Video8 footage of the last interview included in the publication, a personal conversation between the artist, his daughter, Rainer Judd, and her friend, filmmaker Joshua Homnick, in Marfa. A conversation with Michael Blackwood, Flavin Judd, and Caitlin Murray—co-editors of Donald Judd Interviews—will follow the screening.

The following day, collaborators brought together by the Judd Foundation, David Zwirner Books, and Independent Curators International will read from these historical interviews with Judd, representing a diverse range of critical voices from the curatorial field who also have a connection to the publication or, by extension, Judd more specifically.
The reading of interviews, sourced from over four decades, will be interspersed with archival audio recordings of the original interviews, selected in conversation with co-editor of Donald Judd Interviews, Caitlin Murray, Director of Archives and Programs at Judd Foundation.
