Today I traveled up to Beacon, NY to visit the awesomely cool Dia: Beacon museum. Since the museum is upstate (where there is endless space) and housed in an old Nabisco factory it can hold a lot of large scale art work that can't really fit or work with the spaces here in the city. It was a never ending maze of installations, some awesome and some not so much. (If we have ever had a conversation about art you would know I am not a lover of most contemporary art.) I did however find a lot things I enjoyed at Dia, especially a large spider by Louise Bourgeois. I wasn't supposed to take any photos in the galleries, but it was so cool, I had to!
Dia: Beacon is a perfect mini day escape from the city. Its only a short ride way on the Metro North!
