"Minimal Art" is a seminal exhibition catalogue published in 1968 by the Haags Gemeentemuseum in The Hague. Curated by Enno Develing, the exhibition was one of the first major showcases of Minimal Art outside the United States, running from March 23 to May 26, 1968.
The catalogue documents works by prominent artists such as Carl Andre, Ronald Bladen, Dan Flavin, Robert Grosvenor, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt, Robert Morris, Tony Smith, Robert Smithson, and Michael Steiner. It is richly illustrated, providing a visual record of the exhibited pieces, and includes essays by Enno Develing and Lucy Lippard that offer critical insights into the Minimal Art movement.
This publication is considered one of the most important Minimal Art catalogues produced outside the U.S., marking a significant moment in the international recognition of the movement. The Haags Gemeentemuseum's 1968 exhibition played a pivotal role in introducing Minimal Art to European audiences, and the museum subsequently expanded its collection in this genre.
Given its historical significance and limited availability, this catalogue is a valuable resource for collectors and scholars interested in the development and dissemination of Minimal Art.
