Marfa Modern
Author: Helen Thompson
Publisher: The Monacelli Press, LLC
ISBN: 1580934730
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Twenty-one houses in and around Marfa, Texas, provide a glimpse at creative life and design in one of the art world’s most intriguing destinations. When Donald Judd began his Marfa project in the early 1970s, it was regarded as an idiosyncratic quest. Today, Judd is revered for his minimalist art and the stringent standards he applied to everything around him, including interiors, architecture, and furniture. The former water stop has become a mecca for artists, art pilgrims, and design aficionados drawn to the creative enclave, the permanent installations called “among the largest and most beautiful in the world,” and the austerely beautiful high-desert landscape. In keeping with Judd’s site-specific intentions, those who call Marfa home have made a choice to live in concert with their untamed, open surroundings. Marfa Modern features houses that represent unique responses to this setting—the sky, its light and sense of isolation—some that even predate Judd’s arrival. Here, conceptual artist Michael Phelan lives in a former Texaco service station with battery acid stains on the concrete floor and a twenty-foot dining table lining one wall. A chef’s modest house comes with the satisfaction of being handmade down to its side tables and bath, which expands into a private courtyard with an outdoor tub. Another artist uses the many rooms of her house, a former jail, to shift between different mediums—with Judd’s Fort D. A. Russell works always visible from her second-story sun porch. Extraordinary building costs mean that Marfa dwellers embrace a culture of frontier ingenuity and freedom from excess—salvaged metal signs become sliding doors and lengths of pipe become lighting fixtures, industrial warehouses are redesigned after the area’s white-cube galleries to create space for private or personally created art collections, and other materials are suggested by the land itself: walls are made of adobe bricks or rammed earth to form sculptural courtyards, or, in one remarkable instance, a mix of mud and brick plastered with local soils, cactus mucilage, horse manure, and straw.

Marfa Shadows
Author: John DeMers
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781933979816
Category : Indians of North America
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Brett Baldwin is a Texas chef who keeps his life, his emotions, and especially his restaurant--a hip, cutting edge destination called Mesquite in the timy town of Marfa--under careful control. He arranges most of the things that matter to him in color-coded folders in his office. That control lasts only as long as it takes Meridyth Morgan--Marfa girl, high school love interest and now Hollywood star--to walk into his dining room and beg him to help locate her missing brother. Almost as soon as Brett reluctantly agrees to ask around, Meridyth finds herself kidnapped. And Brett finds himself drawn into a violent world he's always taken pains to avoid: the nearby Tex-Mex frontier of drug smuggling, human trafficking, corruption, extortion and murder. Nothing in Brett's personality, nothing in his marriage and divorce, and absolutely nothing in his recipe books help him deal with this" --Cover, p. 2.

Hey, Marfa
Author: Jeffrey Yang
Publisher: Graywolf Press
ISBN: 9781555978198
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
An extraordinary lyric and visual meditation on place, nature, and art rippling out from Marfa, Texas Situated in the outreaches of southwest Texas, the town of Marfa has long been an oasis for artists, immigrants looking for work, and ranchers, while the ghosts of the indigenous and the borders between languages and nations are apparent everywhere. The poet and translator Jeffrey Yang experienced the vastness of desert, township, sky, and time itself as a profound clash of dislocation and familiarity. What does it mean to survive in a physical and metaphorical desert? How does a habitat long associated with wilderness and death become a center for nourishment and art? Out of those experiences and questions, Yang has fashioned a fascinating, multifaceted work—an anti-travel guide, an anti-Western, a book of last words—that is a lyrical, anthropological investigation into history, culture, and extremity of place. Paintings and drawings of Marfa’s landscapes and substations by the artist Rackstraw Downes intertwine with Yang’s texts as mutual nodes and lines of energy. Hey, Marfa is a desert diary scaled to music that aspires to emit particles of light.
