Thomas Kellein Named New Director of Donald Judd's Chinati Foundation

Quiet emptiness, a locked Prada store, and creepy lights await Thomas Kellein when he moves to Marfa, Texas this January. The Chinati Foundation, founded by Donald Judd and housing permanent installations of his work, as well as by other artists like Dan Flavin and Claes Oldenburg, has announced that Kellein will be taking over as its new director at the start of next year, replacing the retiring Marianne Stockebrand, who has been in the role for the past sixteen years.
