Beacon has long been recognized for its historic significance, scenic beauty, and vibrant diversity. Now, this city on the Hudson is undergoing a dramatic renaissance to become a center for the arts as home to one of the world's largest contemporary collections at Dia:Beacon, site of the renowned Tallix Art Foundry, and the address of an increasing number of independent galleries. In Beacon Revisited, informative text is artfully combined with more than two hundred illustrations-many of them never before published-to celebrate Beacon's rich history and its promising future.
