Donald Judd's uncompromising reviews avoid the familiar generalizations so often associated with the styles emerging during the 1950s and 1960s. More than merely surveying the art produced and exhibited during that period, Judd discusses in detail the work of more than 500 artists then showing in New York and provides a critical account of this significant era in American art. While addressing the social and political ramifications of art production, the writings focus on the work of Jackson Pollock, Kasimir Malevich, Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, John Chamberlain, Larry Poons, Kenneth Noland and Claes Oldenburg. The essay "Specific Objects" (1965), one of the essential discussions of sculptural thought in the '60s, is included as well as JuddÕs notorious polemical essay, "Imperialism, Nationalism, Regionalism" (1975), published here for the first time.
