Between Houston and Alburquerque we stayed in a little place called Marfa, which is in an area where a lot of “No Country for Old Men” was filmed. It seemed to have a burgeoning arts community within it, lead by Donald Judd the architect and installation artist who had about four galleries on the main strip. Unfortunately [...]

First an apology; I’m suffering from computer problems at the moment so I’m having to write reviews in a laborious way. For all of you thinking I had died from food poisoning, sorry to scare you. My mum brought me up to have a tough stomach. I know there’s a back log so I’ll try [...]
