Marfa is a small desert city in West Texas that has transformed from a railroad water stop into an internationally recognized art destination. Located in Presidio County, this remote town gained prominence in the 1970s when minimalist artist Donald Judd moved there and began creating large-scale installations.

The city, with its population of around 2,000 residents, combines the stark beauty of the Chihuahuan Desert landscape with contemporary art spaces. The former military base, Fort D.A. Russell, has been converted into art galleries and installation spaces.

Marfa's artistic heritage is complemented by its historical architecture, including the Presidio County Courthouse, and its natural surroundings offer clear views of the Marfa Lights, an unexplained natural phenomenon. The town maintains a balance between its ranching roots and its status as a contemporary art center, creating a unique cultural environment that attracts visitors from around the world.
