After looking around, this place looked like one of the most terrifying places in America until closer inspection of the land from Marfa to Carlsbad to 285.
Those little white gridded lines/dots aren’t cute little homesteads. What are those?

@Tammo - we actually featured the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe back in January on Holocaust Memorial Day.

That’s not really all that impressive as far as concrete art goes I’d say. Have a look at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
It consists of a 19,000 square meter (4.7 acre) site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs … The Wikipedia article has some nice ground level shots

One of the other artists who has work at the Chinati Foundation is Dan **Flavin**. I wonder how that came about?

Donald Judd had two sons – one called Flavin Starbuck, the other called Rainer Yingling!
Somehow i cant see them two ending up working in ASDA with names like that!
