While Cooke says the staff was intent on not creating a "fruit salad" â€â€? with a hodgepodge of artists in each gallery â€â€? she believes that people will see connections between the works, even if the works aren't right next to each other Y Ex-Factory Now Home for Contemporary Art May 7, 4:24 PM EST %meta(topic:apâ€â€?to pic:general entertainment;subtop ic:other;%) BEACON, N to 4 p It makes so much sense," he says "All you have to do is spend a little time with it As they passed over the city of Beacon, someone pointed to the factory " This layout, says Cooke, is intended to dissuade museum-goers from the notion that there is a specific trajectory one should follow when viewing art And there are no wall texts to tell viewers what is important about what they're viewing General admission is $10 As each day progresses and the sun fades, however, Flavin's "monuments" win their silent battle Wedged into one corner, her 17-foot steel "Spider" engulfs a mesh cage, its creepy bulk emphasized by the cramped quarters From Serra's massive sculptures to Michael Hizer's geometric cavities â€â€? "North, East, South, West" â€â€? that extend some 20 feet below the concrete floor, many works are simply too large or too demanding to be adequately showcased in a more orthodox museum " Whenever possible, individual artists were able to choose and then modify their spaces The museum will house the Dia Art Foundation's extensive art collection m org "I don't feel that I am isolated," he says â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? Dia:Beacon opens on May 18 "Instead of focusing on giant architectural issues," as is typical with most museum construction, he says, "for four years all of our energy went into figuring out what the art needs In keeping with Dia's tradition of catering to artists, which began with its patronage of sculptors like Donald Judd in the 1970s, Dia:Beacon has tried to accommodate the requirements and desires of its artists S The vastness of the new museum provides necessary space for the more than 1,000 works amassed by the foundation from 24 of the most prominent artists of the latter half of the 20th century, including Joseph Beuys, Cy Twombly, Sol LeWitt, Andy Warhol, Brice Marden and Gerhard Richter Govan is fond of describing Dia:Beacon as a campus of individual artists' spaces It was 1998, and Dia was mired in the daunting task of finding a permanent home for its artwork, much of which was languishing in storage Her amorphous, sexual shapes hang throughout the raw, brick-walled space, like slabs of flesh in a meat locker THE WORK MAY BE FABRICATED 3 Y "If you put a Flavin in here, it becomes very hard to read these things " The original integrity of the building has been left virtually untouched, other than a few necessary alterations and the addition of a small entrance foyer that opens onto a light-flooded stretch of floor and Walter De Maria's progression of stainless steel circles and squares, "The Equal Area Series " Artists met with Govan, curator Lynne Cooke and artist Robert Irwin, who served as master planner and also designed the surrounding gardens, in which cherry trees, hornbeams and even the grass serve as architectural elements diaart "The artists of this generation all address space and make a dialogue with it, as opposed to being passive or disinterested," she says The story of how the Dia foundation's collection found a home in the abandoned factory has taken on an almost providential aura For an artist such as Robert Ryman, who creates white, minimalist paintings, this separation is crucial, says Govan " The three sculptures, along with a fourth spiral called "2000," fit perfectly into the factory's former train shed Due to the building's reliance on natural light winter hours, beginning on October 15, are Friday through Monday from 11 a The vast area resembles a sculpture park more than it does a gallery , and the Massachussetts Museum of Contemporary Art, MASS MoCA, in North Adams The smaller top level â€â€? or attic â€â€? is occupied solely by celebrated sculptor Louise Bourgeois 1 Contemporary Art Center in Long Island City, N "Because of the layout, at any given moment you see things out of the corner of your eye "It was a ready-made museum," says Michael Govan, director of the new Dia:Beacon, which opens May 18 m At 92, Bourgeois rarely travels, but an assistant was very involved in the installation process As a result, most of the works have either rarely or never been shown before Artist Lawrence Weiner has three works at Dia:Beacon, including his 1969 "Declaration of Intent," painted on the walls of the cafe: 1 Ryman's art "is extremely sensitive to its environment," Govan says The history of contemporary art unfolds in the galleries with works from every major movement, including conceptualism, minimalism and environmental art Project architect OpenOffice figured out how to make everything work, such as hiding the mechanical systems to create an environment in which nothing distracts from the art " While some might view the renovation of a pre-existing building into a museum as a limiting experience, Govan describes it as freeing The sprawling, open-floor complex is naturally illuminated by a wealth of skylights These collaborative installations, says Cooke, have been the most enjoyable aspect of creating Dia:Beacon "But this was a conversation from the beginning, which is rare The large factory windows flood the gallery with light, almost overwhelming the artificial light with natural brilliance One of the few female artists of her generation, she is also one of the few women represented at Dia:Beacon â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: Dia:Beacon: www " Such subtleties as brush stroke variations and Ryman's attention to edges come to the forefront when viewed in the Dia space The white tubular lights are installed on a white wall that zigzags down the length of this space, according to a design the artist conceived but never implemented before his death in 1996 Rather, she hopes people will imagine various "hypothetical" relationships between the works Then, one day, Cooke, Govan and architect Richard Gluckman were flying up the Hudson River, on their way to MASS MoCA THE WORK NEED NOT BE BUILT Weiner describes the usual installation process as a constant tug of war between artist and museum staff In reality, says Govan with a wry smile, "There was no genius Dia's allegiance to an artist's wishes does not end with the artist's death The cavernous, 50,000 square-foot basement will be the only changing exhibition space, and will also feature multimedia pieces, such as Bruce Nauman's video installation, "Mapping the Studio I (Fat Chance John Cage)," a compilation of nocturnal recordings of Nauman's studio (AP) â€â€? The old Nabisco printing factory seemed a natural home for the oddly delicate bulk of Richard Serra's steel creation, "Torqued Ellipses Tatlin No one even thought about this building until three months later when all other options had fallen through He gestures to an expanse of hardwood floor strewn with John Chamberlain's crumpled, colorful metal sculptures "In a typical museum experience, you're told, 'We have the perfect space for you, we hope you're happy with it,' and you basically work from that point," says Wiener THE ARTIST MAY CONSTRUCT THE WORK 2 Tensions and frustrations were mounting m The daily, come-from-behind victory is wonderful to watch The maple floors and exposed brick of the outer walls help the space retain the building's original industrial nature Unlike many other museums, which typically group different artists together, Dia:Beacon's loose network of galleries is set up so that each artist can be seen separately And with 240,000 square feet of gallery space, the $30 million Dia:Beacon will be the largest contemporary museum in the world, dwarfing such places as the P Govan, who says texts can be disruptive when placed beside unframed works, says too much is made of the "difficulty" of modern and postmodern art Museum hours through October 14 are Thursday through Monday from noon to 6 p Some of the creations are gigantic, requiring more space than most museums can afford to give Weiner agrees Besides the main floor, the museum has two levels One of the perimeter galleries houses Dan Flavin's fluorescent-light "monuments" for architect V In that instant, Dia: Beacon was born Artistic director Joe Dowling praised Trapnell Tuesday for her contributions to the theater Jesse Ventura vetoed $24 million in state funding Her job performance was not in question He added that there are no immediate plans for replacing her Trapnell said personal reasons prompted her decision to return to Seattle, where she was executive director of the Seattle Arts Commission and managing director of the nonprofit playhouse A Contemporary Theatre when the Guthrie hired her Trapnell initiated "a new long-term fiscal discipline" at the theater and "has been instrumental in negotiating a final land and parking partnership with the city of Minneapolis" for the planned $125 million Guthrie complex on the Mississippi River, Dowling said "Susan was a fantastic manager, well liked and respected by the entire staff," said Guthrie spokesman James Morrison French architect Jean Nouvel's design for the new Guthrie has been announced, but work was stalled last year when Gov Trapnell Resigns From Guthrie Theater Jan 2, 4:27 PM EST MINNEAPOLIS (AP) â€â€? Susan Trapnell, managing director of the Guthrie Theater, has resigned after less than a year When Trapnell was hired, Guthrie officials stressed her experience with fund-raising, building projects and public policy In Seattle, she helped raise $35 million from government, corporate and individual sources that financed A Contemporary Theatre's move into a renovated downtown complex with three theaters She started the Guthrie job in February |
