Private Tour of Robert Irwin’s Beacon Project and Louise Lawler’s Birdcalls

Beacon

Go behind the walls of this former Nabisco factory to see how Robert Irwin literally built the museum as a work of art, then wander the West Garden to catch Louise Lawler's mischievous Birdcalls chirping the names of famous male artists. A Dia guide reveals how architecture and sound shape what you experience here.
