"GIANT" Marfa Mural

Mountain Trail Region
US Hwy 90 5 miles west of Marfa Marfa, TX 79843

A donation to the city of Marfa, the mural by artist John Cerney honors the movie 'Giant' (1956), which was partially filmed in this small west Texas town. The mural is a collaboration with singer/songwriter/musician Michael Nesmith who made possible the addition of an audio element to the mural installation. The sounds of Nesmith and his First National Band Redux play continually on a loop from hidden speakers near the automobile in the scene.
