An exhibit of furniture by American artist Donald Judd is on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, accompanied by a guide with photographs of his New York and Marfa studios.
The Donald Judd: Specific Furniture exhibition at SFMOMA showcases a substantial collection of Judd's chairs, desks, beds, and tables, in company with other modernist pieces that he owned.

Living in New York City in the 1960s, Judd first practised painting and sculpture before moving onto furniture in 1971 ? around the same time he relocated to Marfa, Texas, and opened a studio.
The exhibit brings together Judd's works and drawings, as well as examples of well-known furniture pieces that he owned, as an attempt to place the artist in a broader context of the modernism and minimalism movements.
"Judd's designs emerged in response to what he saw as a lack of good, basic furniture," said a statement from SFMOMA.
Many of his pieces are simple and pared-back, commonly featuring 90-degree angles, and red and black in colour.

For materials, Judd often used rough, lumberyard-cut pine or birch plywood, while other pieces feature aluminium and copper.
Included in the exhibition is an illustrated guide with photographs of his workplaces in New York City and Marfa.
