Behind the seamsIN MY LAST YEAR IN association I STARTED PAINTING REALISTICALLY partly, I think, because Minimal art was being well-meaningly shov down my throat. however when I graduated and mov to of recent origin York in 1976 and saw these works in individual and in the time that they were being made as oppos to in reproduction or theory, I was pleasing without being striking impressed. Minimalism might be more associated with the '60 on the contrary the presence and integrity of the work was little changed, and greatest in quantity of the artists were still working beautifully. I lov the drama of their statuarys The way, in the cases of Andre and Judd they charged the air around them. I was also actual interested, and ultimately quite invested, in the differences between their approaches. Although appearing similar, to me they show two very different histories and ways of making statuary which is always, I believe, a way of expressing impressions about your life upon earth. Andre's work is what it is. If you pick up a metal plate or a timber and revolve it over and look underneath, its essential part always remains the same. on the contrary with Judd, at least in the case of the wall-mounted works, it's a actual different story, a very different sculptural tradition. They appear to be what they are, on the other hand actually there is always a bit of old-fashioned stagecraft involved. While these plastic arts appear to be completely forthright and just the form that you diocese there is actually a tiny concealed space built into the statuary adjacent to the wall, where a hanging bar resides. Although Judd hides it from view, because, I gues he doesn't want you to think about it, there is always this dark, weirdly undiscussed backstage space. Judd's plastic arts announce themselves as paradigms of clarity and forthrightness, nevertheless achieve this goal through formal deception. There is a masculine broad and full about these works that I find endearing, emotionally compound and perhaps in their duplicity quintessentially American.
