Buffalo Art

Buffalo is renowned for its art collections and architecture, and Canisius University is located near many of the city's galleries and famous buildings. The reigning jewel is the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, famous for its modern and contemporary works. Close by that gallery is the Burchfield Penney Art Center, which is dedicated to the art and artists of Western New York. Besides these two institutions, there are many smaller galleries throughout the city that show a variety of work by local, national, and international artists and film makers. There is easy access from the college to architectural and landscaping masterpieces by Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Henri Sullivan, Frederick Law Olmsted, and others.
