What art have I seen? Dia Beacon

Posted in Exhibitions by chrisfremantle on July 24, 2016

‘Best of minimalism’. The good tracks were Agnes Martin, Louise Bourgeois, Richard Serra, Robert Irwin, On Kawara, Fred Sandback. Having come from Mass MOCA it is apparent that Dia need to have a space for one artist to be focused on in depth.
