ART & ARCHITECTURE SYMPOSIUM
A curated component of the full /Dialogues program, the second annual Symposium features a day-long series of discussions and discourse surrounding the intersecting fields of art and architecture.
Flavin Judd (Curator and Co-President | Judd Foundation), Sarah Herda (Director | Graham Foundation), and Julian Rose (Senior Editor | Artforum)
Writing was a parallel activity to Donald Judd’s art, architecture, and design practice. In his essay "Art and Architecture," from 1983, he states, "My aphorism is not that form follows function but that it never violates it." This essay is one of many texts by the late artist included in Donald Judd Writings, the most comprehensive survey of Judd's writing in one volume, released by the Judd Foundation in partnership with David Zwirner Books. This panel will examine the role of language—both its resistance and necessity at the crossroads of art and architectural practice. Presented in partnership with the Department of Architecture, Interior Architecture, and Designed Objects at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
