San Francisco Hotels

It may as surprise to many tourists, but Buffalo has an abundance of art galleries to enjoy during your stay. One of the most spectacular places to get in touch with works of modern and contemporary art is the Albright Knox Art Gallery, which was described by Thomas Hoving, former Director of the New York Metropolitan Museum, as “an overwhelming art experience.”

Right across the street is the Burchfield-Penney Art Center, which is entirely devoted to pieces by Charles Burchfield, a visionary watercolorist, and his peers from the Buffalo State College. A new 84,000 square foot home to the gallery was completed in June 2008 by Gwathmey-Siegel Associates of New York, giving the visitors as spectacular setting to enjoy the eternal works of art.
