Literature: Schellman 92-96 The incomplete set, comprising four aquatints (of 15) on wove paper. Each signed in pencil. Published by the artist, each with the blindstamp of the printer, Styria Studio, New York, with full margins. Each plate 35 1/4 x 24 5/8in (89.5 x 62.5cm) Each sheet 39 7/8 x 29 3/8in (101.3 x 74.6cm). This group of four aquatints from Donald Judd's 1978–79 series (Schellman 92–96) exemplifies his rigorous approach to minimalism and systematic variation. Each print features geometric black forms—vertical lines forming rectilinear enclosures—set against expansive white paper. While appearing uniform at first glance, subtle differences in composition, spacing, and density create rhythmic variation and a sense of depth. Judd's use of aquatint gives the black fields a velvety, saturated texture, emphasizing material presence and precision. Printed at Styria Studio in New York, this incomplete set reflects Judd's concern with modularity and repetition in both two- and three-dimensional formats.

What is Entropy?
Entropy, in a broader sense, refers to the inevitable deterioration or decline of a society or system. In art, the concept was popularized by artist Robert Smithson in the 1960s. He used the term to critique what he saw as the static and overly simplified nature of contemporary minimalist art. Smithson's work often explored the idea of entropy as a force of chaos and decay, contrasting with the perceived order and purity of minimalist works.
