To accompany the exhibition, the Buffalo AKG and DelMonico Books will publish the most comprehensive catalog yet dedicated to Stanley Whitney's pioneering fifty-year career. The book's essays contextualize Whitney's best-known gridded paintings from the past two decades alongside an historical assessment of his practice; the interconnected development of his works on paper; Whitney's relationship with the written word; and the influences on his practice from art history, poetry, music, quilting, and more.

A thoughtful selection of works which celebrates the opening of the new Buffalo AKG Art Museum, and provides a flavor of one of the world's most extraordinary collections of modern and contemporary art.With nearly 400 pages, this entirely new collection handbook presents over 330 works by 265 artists, arranged alphabetically rather than chronologically, and is the premier souvenir publication for museum visitors and art lovers alike.In late 2019 the Albright-Knox Art Gallery broke new ground on the most significant campus expansion and development project in its 160-year history, reopening in 2023 as the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. The Museum's collections span some of the greatest moments in art through the centuries, beginning with its first acquisition, The Marina Piccola, Capri, 1859, by Albert Bierstadt--both the first painting and the first work gifted by an artist to enter the museum's collection. Impressionism and post-Impressionism are well represented with works by leading nineteenth-century European artists such as Edgar Degas, Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Vincent van Gogh. Cubism, Surrealism, Constructivism, and other movements from the revolutionary early years of the 20th century come to life through significant works by Georges Braque, André Derain, Frida Kahlo, Fernand Léger, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Piet Mondrian, Georgia O'Keeffe, Pablo Picasso, and Alexander Rodchenko.

Celebrates a cornerstone of the Yale University Art Gallery's holdings: the Charles B Benenson Collection of Modern and Contemporary Art. This bequest includes works by a veritable pantheon of modern and contemporary artists - among them Jean-Michel Basquiat, Stuart Davis, Fernand Leger, Joan Miro, James Rosenquist, and David Smith.
