Albright-Knox Gallery Tour

Today, a bunch of my Sheridan professors and classmates and I crossed the border for a gallery tour. We went to Buffalo, NY to the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. It was a surprisingly short drive, even with the hassle of being stopped at border security. We saw a lot of amazing pieces of art, and many famous works I remember studying in my art history classes.

One of my favourite pieces by far would have to be the scribble wall drawing by Sol Lewitt, shown in the picture below. Yes, it's a drawing. Taking 5,026 hours and 1,717 pencils, this amazing piece is completely mind-blowing! There was also a room on this one photographer who travelled the world based on suggestions of people she had met. The entire wall was filled with mini-photographs.





It was a great day filled with friends, laughter and lots of art!

  1. Wouldn't it be fun to the resources to travel wherever someone suggested. Great idea for an inspired piece of art! Glad you had a good time.
