with Donald Judd and friends at the dinner table
Together with Wim Smits, a Dutch
colleague, Lucien den Arend visited Donald Judd in his newly acquired hotel
Eichholteren near Küssnacht on the Rigi. In the old hotel kitchen Judd
prepared a Texan meal for his guests. The occasion of the meeting was a trade
of some Gerrit Rietveld furniture for two of Judd's pieces.

"It takes a great deal of time and thought to install work
carefully. This should not always be thrown away. Most art is fragile and some
should be placed and never moved again. Somewhere a portion of contemporary art
has to exist as an example of what the art and its context were meant to be."
