This place was the best for me because I haven't had the right time to relax in two years becasue of school and home work. I THANK THE MUSEUM SO MUCH. I appreciate what the people and the Museum did for me. And this MUSEUM was the first one that I have ever went to in my life.
We went on free first Friday of the month and also enjoyed this cool exhibit involving light. We visited around 9pm, we were just passing by the city and were pleasantly impressed.
The beauty of a museum. A surprisingly famous collection.
Great stuff! Every time I have been there was enlightening and enjoyable. Knowledgeable, entertaining, and fun staff and patrons. A good time!
Have been going for years, being a buffalo native. A great place to take out of town visitors, wonderful exhibits and much more.
I've grown up going to the gallery and it never ceases to amaze me!!
A great museum with many different events happening throughout the year.
Very nice museum and easy to get to with plenty of parking. Lots of open space to walk around and view the installations. The staff are very friendly and the gift shop has some nice things as well.
Amazing place inside and out stocked full of beautiful sculptures and other art exhibits
Awesome art! I usually don't like more modern art that much but the pieces they have here really resonated.
Great place for a weekend getaway, interesting pieces of art and various paintings are a feast to the eyes. The place is clean and well maintained, there is a theatre at the 2nd floor for art shows and presentations. Various structures lie outside the gallery too, which are photogenic spots. There is a fountain made out of utensils in the middle of the hallway, good to look at maybe. They also have a small souvenir shop inside, if you like collecting stuff. Overall, a good place to spend a couple of hours, click some pictures and do some fam jam.
Good art museum. Has impressive quality owned pieces and brings in wonderful rotating showings of other prominent international artists.
Disappointing. Small collection made worse by areas being closed off.
If art is your thing then you found the best place in Buffalo to experience it! Admission to the main collection is free the first Friday of the month as well!
Great exhibits, knowledge staff, and reasonably priced. This place is a must go!
Smaller gallery with some decent pieces in their permanent collection. Came here to see the Picasso exhibit which was outstanding!
The Albright Knox is an excellent place to take some friends when you want to see some cool modern art. There are new exhibits fairly frequently and if you go on the first Friday of every month, admission is free!
Beautiful building with many great works. Good food in a nice environment.
Always well organized with first Friday events and very welcoming for all ages
Didn't go into the museum - was there for Rockin The Knox 2018 featuring Beck. Was a fun show despite the rain.
Previously I have visited the grounds of the museum which has such cool sculptures to behold. Soon I hope to visit the inside of the museum to see what it's like.
Best place in Buffalo to look at art! They always have rotating exhibits so you can keep going back and seeing all offering kinds of artwork.
Pleasant atmosphere, though not too rich collection
Not a very diverse art gallery, not too much diversity in media. Lots of paintings, a few sculptures. We had to pay extra to go upstairs for an artists exhibition but was very disappointed, it was the same stuff being shown over and over up there. You can get through it quickly even with reading all of the placards. They have M&T first fridays though which means everyone gets in free (and free parking) on the first Friday of each month, so maybe go check it out on those days
The art is so beautiful here, and the building is not too big. Perfect for short or long trips and fun for all ages.
Went to the Picasso exhibit after nice dinner at Panos, and we really enjoyed the many different abstract paintings from so long ago.
Great collection of modern art. Museum had strong need for additional space. Not excited about the proposed addition, which obliterates the 1962 Gordon Bunschaft addition.
Staff very helpful
Since they are getting ready for a major reconstruction job, most of collection is not available . The cafe is delightful. No cafeteria here. A real sit down venue with great service and food.
Small but mighty museum
Must pay to park and admission charge, but might be worth the cost to those who love American modern art
Enjoyed the art work and the classic building itself. Been coming to the gallery for over 50 years.
Always a good experience, I cant wait to see what this renovation has in store.
The best..Will stand up with even the finer gallries in Europe..
Worst gallery I have ever been to in the world. The elitist and frosty attitude of staff and security is not warranted for such a "ho dunk" gallery.
Hidden gem! It has a very good collection of art and regularly changes exhibits. The traveling exhibits are particularly good. There is a huge crowd on the First Fridays of each month (free admission). But it is worth going on regular days, too to avoid the crowd.
Was kind of sad I didn't see the Salvador Dali. And the man at the information both didn't know anything about it
World class museum, and an excellent one to have in one's hometown. There are always a couple special exhibits to see, and the museums collection is always being circulated so that something is new even if you go every month. Interesting outside sculpture, and the museum borders a lake of Delaware park which adds variety to a visit. Colorful accessible art appeals to all ages. The cafe is very good. Last night we attended a music and dance performance in the auditorium and I had forgotten how spectacular that can be as the sunsets through the floor to ceiling side walls.
Such an awesome place, especially great on the first Friday of every month when admission is free! During these days the bar/restaurant is a great place to grab a glass of wine and listen to live music. Great start to date night or a night out with the family.
At the reception, I was well explained how are organized the rooms of the museum to better appreciate and plan my visit. There are many European and American artists, some paintings have interesting explanatory texts. We can spend at least 2 hours, more if we dwell on the many scultures outside the building.
I think the Albright is one of the most important and incredible Modern Art museums in North America. I'm never disappointed with my visits to this World Class Gallery. They have great examples of all the contemporary artists you should know about. They're about to undergo some major transformations/renovations so get there if you can in the fall of 2019 or you'll be waiting a while! The current Anthony McCall installation is incredible!!!
We went into the gallery when we were at Rocking at the Knox, it was beautiful, clean, friendly. A great place to visit.
There are many friendly people that work there and I miss them very much
Pretty nice place. It's free on the first Friday of every month which is great. They have some good paintings
I suggest going in the summer as the outside has so much to offer. Inside is great too. A very nice pollock and some really nice oil paintings. Upstairs is a little extra on first fridays when it s free to most of the gallery. The best stuff however is upstairs. Mirrored room huge table room. If you enjoy art then it s cool.
Had a gallery talk on the drawing exhibit. Renewed my membership - a senior membership w/20% discount for M&T First Friday!
Not terribly big selection but worth going at least once.
The Impressionism exhibition is magnificent and the collection of the gallery is extremely interesting
Albright-knox Art Gallery is a Beautiful building containing beautiful artwork surrounded by beautiful Delaware Park just an all-around relaxing day
Very knowledgeable guide named Eleanor made the experience educational with people's interaction and views on all art pieces.
Went there with a church group it was nice the kids really enjoyed it.
dark room was great fun, unexpected variety of artists, looking forward to visiting again when completed expansion
There is no place like this in the world I'm not joking it is art history that is unsurpassed
A hidden gem of an Art Gallery tucked away in little Buffalo
Be sure to get upstairs to view Anselm Keifer's work. Stunning.
Came here unexpectedly and found out that Takashi Murakami had an exhibit here, as well as other artists who had some interesting installations on display. I think coming here with no expectations allowed me to enjoy it a lot better than having assumptions based on what I wanted to see. I definitely loved the Murakami murals, among other things and found the mirror installation, the larger than life objects and beaded wall dividers were some of my favourites. Pretty blown away by some of the projects they had up in here for sure and wouldn't mind coming here again.
Amazing painting and modern art floor is breaking so that could be dangerous
I took my daughter to the first Wednesday of the month stroller tour. It was very well curated and created a relaxing experience for parents to bring their little ones to a museum. It's also a good way to meet other parents! If you're bringing a diaper bag, I suggest finding a way to secure it to your stroller, otherwise, you will be asked to leave it in a complimentary locker.
Very nice art gallery located in Delaware park. Great location. Check out their schedule of exhibits and stuff for children.
For such a small museum that had some amazing works! We loved their cafe too. Would give it a fifth star if I'd enjoyed the upstairs exhibit.
First Friday free did not disappoint. Loved the special exhibit by McCall. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Lots of art. All kinds of styles. A lot of art that forced me to think and other art that I enjoyed just looking at.
Beautiful area & exhibits. Ample parking. They do offer various classes too for families. Price is reasonable though gift shop is a little pricey. Dinner isn't very open as long as the gallery though. Like to walk in Delaware park after seeing exhibits some exhibits are outside like the glass tree stump.
