It is in an old factory so it has a lot of open space. It is a very dynamic space that allows for a lot of different installations. They always have unique things that will push the boundaries of how you view art. I had a good and uplifting time when I went. Spend some time in the town of Beacon when you are done at Dia. Make sure you go in with an open mind. It is modern art so it may not always fit the conventions of what you consider art, but that is the beauty of it.
Phenomenal collection of modern and contemporary art in a massive space. The light is incredible and really highlights the scale of some of the sculptures displayed. The minimalist feel of the space and art labeling makes for a unique museum experience.
Great museum with a ton of open space and natural light flooding in. The venue itself is a work of art! Lots of great modern art exhibits and installations. It's a short 7 minute walk from the beacon station and just a ten minute trek to main Street. Definitely a great spot to spend a few hours
I really enjoy this museum. Exhibit areas are massive with high ceilings which makes for a great atmosphere to see artwork. High quality exhibits are always working their way through the museum. Worth the drive (or train ride). Easy walk from the train station to the museum.
A great day trip from Manhattan to the serene oasis that is Beacon. The grounds of the museum itself is already extremely picturesque. It's a 2-level sprawling space with a lot of interesting modern art. Give yourself a comfortable 2 to 2.5 hrs to take in everything and then go walk around Main Street! Must visit.
