Donald Judd Furniture: Wood and Metal
FINAL DAY–August 1, 2026
101 Spring Street
New York, NY
Judd outlined his concerns for the purpose, fabrication, representation, and exhibition of his furniture in the essay “It’s Hard to Find a Good Lamp.” 1 He determined that the quality of his furniture remain high through production specifications and craftsmanship. This considered approached remains central to the production of his furniture forty years later.
Distinctions between art, architecture, and furniture were fundamental to Judd’s practice. He designed furniture by letting function dominate, while considering the role of space, material, and color on the experience of the object. “Furniture and architecture can only be approached as such” he wrote. “Art cannot be imposed upon them. If their nature is seriously considered the art will occur, even art close to art itself.”2
Selected by Flavin Judd, Artistic Director of Judd Foundation, this selection shows the range of Donald Judd’s designs in various materials and finishes considered for living, working, and shared spaces.
