High Desert Test Sites

The Projects, Yucca Valley

The High Desert Test Sites are 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 conventions such as ownership, property and patronage. It focuses is the question of what art can be as opposed to what everyone else has made it so far. HDTS projects are spread out over 60 miles of rugged desert terrain, some viewers may find themselves pulled off the beaten track, but nearly everyone makes it to the bar.

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