Chinati Foundation

Fodor's Choice

This internationally renowned contemporary art museum, which occupies 15 buildings on a 340-acre campus, is in the vanguard of the minimalist movement that defines the Marfa aesthetic. Chinati emphasizes large installations and changes its exhibits regularly, and it has a well-attended annual open house. The foundation conducts guided tours Wednesday through Sunday of its huge contemporary-art holdings, and some installations can be visited on self-guided tours. Tours often book up quickly; it's highly recommended that you book online in advance.
