Artland USA Marfa, Texas to Denver, Colorado
Donald Judd’s Chinati Foundation in Marfa is simply extraordinary. We see classic Cadillacs buried near Amarillo (the artwork Cadillac Ranch). Santa Fe and Taos are en route, along with paintings by Georgia O’Keeffe and the ceramics of Tammy Garcia. The USAF Academy Chapel is visionary architecture, as is Daniel Liebskind’s extension to the Denver Art Museum.
The second series of our "art road trip", Artland: USA. From late April to mid-July, hosts Mame McCutchin and Toby Amies drove 15,000 from Miami to Anchorage looking at the best of American art and architecture along the way. Covering 50 cities, including Dallas-Fort Worth, Mount Rushmore, Robert Smithson's earthwork Spiral Jetty in the Great Salt Lake, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, we reveal the life-changing experiences that unfold during their three-month quest to map art along the road in the US.
