  • Untitled, 1969

    Donald Judd

    Ten identical boxes industrially fabricated out of galvanized iron and orange Plexiglas protrude seemingly weightlessly from the wall in a vertical stack. Each box is separated from the unit above and below by a space equal to its height. When lit from above, the sculpture casts a dramatic pattern of orange and gray shadows on the adjacent walls and floor.
  • Boys cutting through a hedge, 2003

    Jeff Wall

    Just left of this image’s center, the small figures of two young men emerge from a gap in the largely dead hedge with patches of ivy growing around a chain-link fence that spans across the center of this image beneath an ominously clouded sky. The neatly trimmed grass, sunken headstones, and flower arrangements in the foreground suggest that these men are entering a cemetery.
