| Fifty Works for Fifty States: The Dorothy and Herbert Vogel Collection |
The Dorothy and Herbert Vogel story is not your typical love story. Civil servants by day and voracious art collectors by night and weekend, Dorothy and Herbert Vogel built a world-class collection through modest means. Herbert Vogel (born 1922), who spent most of his working life as a postman, and Dorothy Vogel (born 1935), who was a reference librarian at the Brooklyn Public Library, gave up vacations and creature comforts by devoting the entirety of Herbert's salary to collecting and acquiring works by contemporary artists. Committed to discovering new work by up-and-coming artists, the Vogels have amassed a collection since their marriage in 1962 that now includes more than 4,000 objects by some of the most remarkable and renowned artists of our time.

| Fletcher Benton: The Alphabet |
| Renowned American sculptor Fletcher Benton is best known for cutting, folding, and realigning two-dimensional sheets of steel into three-dimensional objects that seem to defy gravity. This exhibition, organized by Albright-Knox Art Gallery Associate Curator Holly E. Hughes, will focus on Bentons Alphabet series, which he began in the 1970s. The seventy works on loan from the collection of James J. Curtis, including paper maquettes and corresponding sculptures, will provide an in-depth examination of the artists creative process. Scheduled to be on view for a year, this exhibition will also be the focus of a comprehensive educational program for elementary, middle, and high school students. |
