The Judd Foundation preserves and promotes the work and legacy of Donald Judd, one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. In New York City, the foundation’s SoHo location at 101 Spring Street is a landmark of minimalist architecture and design. Originally acquired by Judd in 1968, the five-story cast-iron building was the first in the neighborhood to be converted into a live-work space for artists. Today, it remains a meticulously preserved example of Judd’s vision, offering insight into his philosophy of permanent installations, art in space, and the integration of art, architecture, and design. Through guided visits, scholarly research, and conservation efforts, the Judd Foundation continues to uphold his enduring influence on contemporary art and design.
The works on view at 101 Spring Street remain as installed by Judd. Throughout his writings, Judd identifies the installation of 101 Spring Street as the source of permanent installation as a practice. In his 1989 essay, ‘101 Spring Street,’ he wrote: “I spent a great deal of time placing the art and a great deal designing the renovation in accordance. Everything from the first was intended to be thoroughly considered and to be permanent.”
