Taking the vast, strange and often contradictory desert landscape as its canvas, the inaugural Desert X, curated by Artistic Director Neville Wakefield, explored the familiar and the unknown through an exhibition of public art installations situated at sites across the California Desert.

Sixteen artists from different parts of the world were invited to create new works in response to the unique conditions of the Coachella Valley.
