Dia Beacon, December 19, 2022
Dia presents the latest in our "One Work at Dia Beacon" series, where we invite artists in the Hudson Valley to reflect on a single work of art currently on view at Dia Beacon. For our most recent iteration, we talked with Vernon M. Byron, who also happens to work at Dia. He chose to reflect on Charles Gaines's work, specifically Librettos: Manuel de Falla/Stokely Carmichael, Set 24, 2020.
