Noah Purifoy Desert Art Museum of Assemblage Art
Fodor's choice
This installation of “assemblage art” on a sandy 10-acre tract of land in town honors the work of artist Noah Purifoy, whose sculptures blend with the spare desert in an almost postapocalyptic way. Purifoy lived here for the last 25 years of his life until his death in 2004. He used found materials to create works that highlighted social issues, and his pieces have been displayed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, J. Paul Getty Museum, Museum of Modern Art in New York, and elsewhere.
