Kurt Andersen and Michael Govan, the director of Dia:Beacon, tour this new museum housed in an old printing building in the Hudson Valley, about 75 miles north of New York City. Dia made this space so it could house sculpture and art that would never fit comfortably in an average downtown museum gallery. Produced by Paul Ruest and David Krasnow.
