Travis R. Austin, Judd’s Walking Boxes
September 16th, 2020 to October 20th, 2020

In the essay Judd's Walking Boxes musician and artist Travis Austin rethinks the role sound and movement play within Donald Judd's 100 untitled works in mill aluminum.

(excerpt)
*Auditory perception dissolves visually-based epistemologies that are foundational to the Western art-historical canon. Where Judd takes a step from painting into real space, sound art takes another and surpasses empirical individuals. Judd said of his own art, “There should be no movement, why should a static object imitate movement?” Now that we can hear a Judd piece, we know that it is moving. The objects and spaces he created are not static.*
