Yup, that sure looks like a Prada store in a middle of a desert in Texas but no, you won't be spending any cash there. Prada Marfa is a permanent sculpture by Berlin artists Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset, about 30 miles from an artists' community called Marfa. Launched on October 1, 2005 and meant to look like a Prada store stocked with actual shoes and bags from the Fall 2005 collection, the art structure is sealed like a time capsule. Neat!
