		Since its inception, Dia has defined itself as a vehicle for the realization of extraordinary artists' projects that might not otherwise be supported by more conventional institutions.
		Beginning in early 1995, Dia initiated a series of artists' projects for the web by commissioning projects from artists who are interested in exploring the aesthetic and conceptual potentials of this medium.
		In this project, created especially for Dia's website, Hiller maps her long-standing interest in dream states onto the nebulous realm of the web using interactive colorfields and a soundtrack in six languages.

	Hudson River School Drawings On View At Frick Art Museum
		The drawings included in the exhibition were assembled by one of Dia's principal artists, Dan Flavin (1933-1996), during the late 1970s and early 1980s when he and Dia were planning a museum for his own work in the Hudson River Valley.
		By drawing from the landscape, he wanted to interpret not only its unique qualities and energy, but he wanted his drawings to serve as existential traces of his encounter with the land, sky and light and the people who moved in and through his field of perception as he drew.
		The Frick Art and Historical Center is at 7227 Reynolds Street.
