Magazzino Italian Art in Cold Spring, NY

Where to See Art:

Upstate NY is famous for its incredible art and design scene and Dia:Beacon is a space that never disappoints. With works by Donald Judd, Dan Flavin and Richard Serra, Dia:Beacon is focused on art of the 1960’s and 1970’s, a particular source of inspiration for Nili. Not far from Dia is Magazzino Italian Art in Cold Spring. Magazzino, meaning “warehouse,” is an art-space celebrating Italian artists and is currently showing Constantino Nivola’s modernist sculptures. Art Omi in Ghent, NY is a must-see. This 120-acre sculpture and architecture park is the best way to spend a full day outside, intaking the Valley’s natural beauty and stumbling upon beautiful art.

Where to Stay:

Dedicated to the modernist architecture lovers, Piaule Catskill is an excellent choice with its private cabins and pool with breathtaking views of the Catskill Mountains. With its great interior design, The Maker Hotel is a space dedicated to creatives and delivers on its promise of a luxurious stay. This 11-room boutique hotel feels like a trip through time with beautiful antiques and a European-style café and restaurant that’s not to be missed. If you want to wake up surrounded by nature, Woodhouse Lodge located in the foothills of the Catskills is a great choice for anyone looking for a more rustic-chic vibe.
