Chinati Foundation, Contemporary art museum in Marfa, Texas, US.

The Chinati Foundation spans across former military buildings, displaying permanent large-scale art installations integrated with the desert surroundings.

Donald Judd established the Chinati Foundation in 1986 by transforming abandoned Fort Russell structures into spaces for permanent art exhibitions.

The museum collection includes concrete works, aluminum structures, and installations from selected international artists within the minimalist movement.

The museum operates through guided tours with limited capacity, requiring advance reservations to access the full collection and outdoor installations.

The foundation maintains specific pathways through desert grasslands where visitors observe art pieces against the natural Texan landscape.
