Item description from seller

Paperback. Marfa, Texas, is a world-renowned art pilgrimage site. When Donald Judd moved there in 1971, he permanently installed works of art in and around the town. Catalyzed by Judds presence, the small southwestern town is now home to galleries, arts foundations, festivals, and studios. In Marfa, Marfa, Josh T Franco examines the minimalist frameworks and aesthetic paradigms Judd brought to Marfa and how they intersect with the rasquache sensibilities of the areas Chicanx, Mexican American, and Catholic communities. Franco draws on his own family history in the town as well as Marfas complex history, culture, and memory, analyzing archival documents alongside the arts institutions that gave rise to the towns identity. Marfa, Marfa employs a decolonial and experimental method to examine minimalist and Chicanx art through objects for public display, local dialects, and domestic observations, ultimately demonstrating Marfas unique role as a crossroads for minimalism and rasquachismo. In Marfa, Marfa, Josh T Franco examines the minimalist frameworks and aesthetic paradigms that artist Donald Judd brought to Marfa, Texas, now a famous art-pilgrimage site, and their intersection with the rasquache sensibilities of Marfa's local Chicanx and Mexican American communities, which include Franco's own family.
