HistorySince 2016 Marfa Open has exhibited local, national and international artists for the course of a three week festival held in Marfa, Texas each Fall. With the participating artists and the community of Marfa we have accomplished collaborative projects ranging from immersive installations to fine art exhibition. Our focus is to give the process of creativity a spotlight, from idea to presentation. We see Marfa as something more than just a pass-through town or photo-op, but rather a nexus for transforming the creative atmosphere which we constantly inhabit. What we have done so far with only private funding is an excellent example of how to problem solve in a positive and intelligent way and best make use of the talents we each possess toward realizing a common aim.SpecialtiesSince 2016 Marfa Open has exhibited local, national and international artists for the course of a three week festival held in Marfa, Texas each Fall.
