Monochrome Monday – The Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Museum

Noah Purifoy (1917 – 2004) was an American assemblage artist who tackled issues of race and society. He spent the last 15 years of his life working on 10 acres in Joshua Tree, California. That space is now the Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Museum (click here for the website). It is, without a doubt, worth the bumpy off-road trip (navigable by regular car). His assemblages will stay with you long after you leave.

I missed Silent Sunday because of travel – so it became a Monochrome Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend.
