Albright-Knox Art Gallery

Introduction

The Albright-Knox Art Gallery, nestled in Delaware Park in Buffalo, New York, is one of America's premier museums of modern and contemporary art. Its roots trace back to 1862 when the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy was founded, and the iconic 1962 expansion designed by Gordon Bunshaft became its architectural signature. The collection spans over a century of modern art, from Impressionism and Post-Impressionism to Cubism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism, featuring masterpieces by Picasso, Van Gogh, Monet, Matisse, Pollock, and Warhol. Following a major expansion named the Jeffrey Gundlach Building, the museum reopened with significantly expanded exhibition spaces, offering visitors a more immersive art experience. It stands as both Buffalo's cultural crown jewel and a pilgrimage site for modern art lovers worldwide.
