Building art: Donald Judd at Marfa, taking the architecture out of a Texan town
A work of art is usually experienced in a state of contemplation within a gallery. Placed in an hermetic enclosure and protected against decay from heat, light and time, it is viewed but rarely touched. No trace or mark is left by those that see it. This is not the familiar experience of a building, but architecture is regularly defined as an art, from which it acquires much of its status. To discuss this contradiction, this paper focuses on the work of an artist, Donald Judd, noted for his 'architecture'.
