The Swimming Pool Oasis

Situated deep in the Mojave desert, Austrian artist Alfredo Barsuglia has installed a contemporary take on an oasis, a piece titled the “Social Pool.” It’s a swimming pool of crystal clear water, as well as cleaning supplies so that those who manage to find it and use it can leave it pristine. In order to get to the pool, you’ll need map details and coordinates from the sponsoring gallery and the desire to brave a scorching desert. Barsuglia’s work joins the ranks of other great elusive artworks—where the adventure factors into the overall experience.
