The term Minimalism appeared in the mid-1960s, primarily with reference to the stripped-down sculpture of artists like Robert Morris and Donald Judd. Investigating the origins of Minimalism in postwar American culture, the author redefines it as a movement that developed radically reductive stylistic innovations in numerous media.

Robert Schwarz, Institute for Studies in American Music "All told, this book is mandatory reading for anyone who wishes to understand the history and nature of minimalism." --i/e NINE
