Blake Hansen said A great job depicting and amazing place. I traveled to Marfa a few years ago and was blown away. I have been searching for a book that documented Marfa and the Chinati foundation and this book is by far the best. I highly recomend it to anyone. The photography and associated text do a great job of presenting the art and explaining its context.. Five Stars marta Great book!. Five Stars Good book.
