Tours at the upcoming #ARLISNA2018 conference are filling up quickly! Here's one with a few spots left that you can't miss. *Day Trip- Dia: Beacon* * http://arlisna.org/newyork2018/program.php <http://arlisna.org/newyork2018/program.php> * *Website*: https://www.diaart.org/visit/visit/diabeacon-beacon-united-states *Sunday February 25, 2018 9:00am - 5:00pm * Dia:Beacon *3 Beekman St, Beacon, NY 12508 * [image: Inline image 3] *Image: http://jonathangrado.com/diabeacon/ <http://jonathangrado.com/diabeacon/>* Occupying a former Nabisco box printing factory on the banks of the Hudson River, Dia:Beacon presents the Dia Art Foundation collection of post-modern and conceptual art from the 1960s to the present as well as special exhibitions, new commissions, and public and education programs. Attendees will take a special guided tour of the collection and the impressive building. The original building had many key design elements that made it an appealing site for contemporary art, including broad spans between supporting columns and more than 34,000-square-feet of skylights. Today these skylights provide natural light in the galleries and have uniquely established Dia:Beacon as a “daylight museum.” Working closely with artist Robert Irwin, Dia devised a masterplan to create a twenty-first century museum building that retained the original character of the building. For the exterior setting, Irwin designed seasonally-changing gardens. In keeping with Dia’s history of single-artist, site-related presentations, each gallery was designed specifically for the presentation of one artist’s work. Examples include Dan Flavin’s series of fluorescent light “Monuments to V. Tatlin;” Joseph Beuys’ mixed-media installations such as Fond III/3 (1979) and Fond IV/4 (1979); Richard Serra’s Torqued Ellipses (2007); and Michael Heizer’s North, East, South, West (1967/2002). *Directions*: Meet the Tour Wrangler in the assembly area in the Hilton Hotel main lobby, main entrance at 9:00 AM to walk together to Grand Central.
