Buffalo Rising

Itmay come as a surprise to some, but Buffalo, New York, has long been home to progressive museums, architectural masterworks, and a history of generous patronage. And right now, the city is in the middle of a never-before-experienced cultural renaissance.

At the centre of this renewal is the Buffalo AKG Art Museum (formerly the Albright-Knox Art Gallery). Housing masterpieces by the likes of Renoir, Kahlo, Pollock, and Warhol, the museum has been building its collection since 1863. Now nearing the completion of a 30,000-square-foot expansion, the Buffalo AKG is entering a whole new chapter in its storied history.
