Catalogue Note

First conceived in 1961, this series represents a decade-long collaboration between the artist and his father, Roy, who carved the blocks and acted as the primary printer. Schellmann notes that Judd did not envision a specific grouping or arrangement of the prints within this series, but rather thought of each print as an individual work of art.
