Chinati Foundation, Contemporary art museum in Marfa, Texas, US.
The Chinati Foundation extends across 340 acres of former military grounds, featuring large-scale art installations integrated with indoor and outdoor spaces.
Donald Judd established the foundation in 1986 after transforming Fort D. A. Russell buildings into exhibition spaces for permanent art installations.
The foundation maintains a collection of works by multiple artists, including John Chamberlain, Dan Flavin, and Robert Irwin, each displayed in dedicated spaces.
Visitors must make reservations for guided tours, which come in three varieties: full collection, selections, and focus tours throughout the seasonal schedule.
The concrete structure 'untitled (dawn to dusk)' by Robert Irwin opened in 2016, converting the former military hospital into an artistic installation.
