Donald Judd’s Library, Marfa, Texas. “To look through someone else’s library is an intriguing practice that involves a certain dose of voyeurism. The books reveal personality. For those involved in scientific culture, books age quickly as new discoveries sweep away the past. The books of a scholar, a historian or an artist, however, become affective objects not easy to part with.” Francesco Spampinato, Kaleidoscope Magazine, issue 07.
