BUFFALO, NY.- The Albright-Knox Art Gallery announces a new exhibition, Artist to Artist, featuring photographs of prominent twentieth- and twenty-first-century artists from the Albright-Knox’s Collection.

Taken by fellow artists, these portraits were created over a span of more than seventy years, and capture artistic figures that define the modern and contemporary art world. Artist to Artist blurs the boundaries between artist and subject while highlighting the museum’s long history as an artist-centric museum through active engagement with contemporary artists.

“Artist to Artist will give visitors a rare and fascinating glimpse into the minds and workspaces of many well-known artists whose works are in the Albright-Knox Collection,” Curatorial Assistant Laura Brill said. “The historical value of this exhibition is remarkable. The exhibition also allows audiences the chance to see the level of artistic engagement that has taken place throughout the museum’s history. This is an important aspect of the Albright-Knox’s foundation and we are proud to share it with our visitors.”

These photographic portraits by artists including Henri Cartier-Bresson (French, 1908–2004), Hollis Frampton (American, 1936–1984), and Fred W. McDarrah (American, 1926–2007) offer an intimate view of the creative spaces and faces of some of the twentieth- and twenty-first century’s artistic vanguard. Depictions of artists ranging from Marcel Duchamp (French, 1887–1968) to Jasper Johns (American, born 1930) explore the collaboration between subject and photographer, and how each artist desired to be portrayed.

The exhibition also includes newly printed photographs of artists captured on their visits to the Albright-Knox during the installation of recent exhibitions and commissioned works. Artist to Artist will be on view in the Clifton Hall Link until November 15.
