Other Primary Structures

The landmark Jewish Museum exhibition "Primary Structures" offered the first presentation of Minimalist sculptures in the United States, in 1966. The accompanying catalogue became a key resource on artists such as Donald Judd, Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, and Sol LeWitt, who were virtually unknown at the time. "Other Primary Structures" is a long-overdue reintroduction of this classic, out-of-print text. This two-volume set includes a replica of the original catalogue, plus a new companion volume that offers a global survey of early Minimalist sculpture during the 1960s and 1970s, featuring important sculptors from Asia, Africa, Latin America and Eastern Europe, and complementing the earlier catalogue's focus on American and British artists. Beautifully designed, this publication comes enclosed in a clear jacket that pays homage to the original catalogue's iconic cover. "Other Primary Structures" is invaluable for the study of modern art history and provides an authoritative survey of Minimalist sculpture in the 1960s.
