About
Dia Beacon is one of the most important contemporary art institutions in the United States — a converted Nabisco printing factory on the Hudson River in Beacon, with 300,000 square feet of natural light and industrial space presenting minimal and conceptual art of the 1960s-90s in conditions that permanent museum galleries rarely provide. Donald Judd, Walter De Maria, Dan Flavin, and Michael Heizer are among the artists whose work fills the building. A pilgrimage destination for those who take the art seriously.
Huge museum in a former factory with modern works from notable artists & loads of natural light.
