high in the california desert ...

High Desert Test Sites is a series of experimental art sites located along a stretch of desert communities including Pioneer town, Yucca Valley, Joshua tree and 29 Palms. These locations provide alternative, free space for experimental work by both emerging and established artists.

The HDTS mission is to challenge traditional conventions of ownership, property and patronage. Most projects will ultimately belong to no one, and they are intended to melt back into the landscape as new ones emerge.


HDTS 07 is scheduled for May 12-13 (A map to ongoing projects will soon be available soon at the official HDTS site.)


We are always in need of volunteers to help prepare sites, remove/restore vandalized works, or assist artists on a one on one basis. If you are available the week before the event and want to help out please contact Maude at office@zittel.org.

 

The High Desert Test Sites is a project organized by Andrea Zittel, Shaun Regen, John Connelly, Andy Stillpass and Lisa Anne Auerbach.
