Noah Purifoy's Outdoor Desert Art Museum
Noah Purifoy's Outdoor Desert Art Museum consists of 7.5 acres of open land displaying Purifoy's assemblage sculptures, created between 1989 and 2004. The works themselves are great - as is the decay due to the harsh elements of their desert setting. Resisting the ideologies of institutionalized art, Purifoy proposed to find out what role nature could play in the history of an art piece, arguing that "changes are an integral part of life itself."

I'm sure you've seen crazier ones, but that is by far the most unique museum I have ever seen! Wow. That's very interesting, I'll need to check it out if I ever make it that way.
