Late minimalist artist, Donald Judd, was never able to realize his dinnerware collection—now, with the help of his foundation and Puiforcat, they can finally be yours.
. They were stark and cylindrical, a few featuring a perpendicular plane at a precise 90-degree angle. Yet when he produced the prototypes, they didn’t live up to the austere aesthetic he envisioned. Frustrated, he shelved the designs—and for the next three decades, the papers collected dust in a drawer.
Until now, that is. This month, silverware company Puiforcat has finally realized the late artist’s work, in partnership with the Judd Foundation.the alliance came about after Puiforcat artistic directors Charlotte Perelman and Alexis Fabray visited Judd’s former New York studio on Spring Street. “We asked if those plates were done in the past,” Perelman says.
While Judd first attempted his dinnerware with stainless steel, both Puiforcat and the artist’s foundation believe that the precious metal’s properties are what made these pieces possible today. “These pieces are clean because by using the silver, which is a craft material, you could make a very sharp design,” she adds.The result? A contemporary, minimalist 8-piece collection that comprises dinner, bread, soup, salad, and dessert plates, as well as a serving bowl and cups.
It's also a complete work that adds to Judd’s great legacy: although he was predominantly known for his work in the visual arts, he held a life-long interest in the field of design. He made furniture for his Marfa compound and New York apartment, as well as wrote essays like “It’s Hard To Find A Good Lamp” for the Museum Boymans-van Beuningen catalog in 1993.
