story glass tower, the other a lower 8-story
emporium, both connected by a glass atrium—
was always conceived as a museum within an
elite office complex. The views of the expan-
sive natural landscaping and pond, were ac-
cented with the owner's private 21 piece
collecPon, including original Henry Moore &
Francisco Zuniga sculptures. The complex has
curated exhibiPons of prominent professional
arPsts year-round ever since.
The buildings and grounds alone are worth a
visit, and the fine art makes it so much be1er.
As curator Sussman notes many people
point out, "It's like our own Guggenheim style
Museum here in the Hudson Valley," but minus
the traffic, minus the entry fees, minus the
hustle-and-bustle, but offering innovaPve
modern architecture, lovely grounds to enjoy,
and memorable contemporary art with enough
breathing room to view and reflect on the indi-
vidual pieces. "Come o#en and enjoy."
