The great art pieces which attracted me and thousands of visitors over many decades are no longer on display. No more Renoir, Van Gogh, Modgliani, Cezanne, Matisse, Picasso, Monet, Degas, or the many fascinating ancient works once so magnificantly on display. You may now enjoy viewing a huge canvas with a large dot in the middle and other similar works of ""art"". The Gallery's annual report is telling in its omission of attendance numbers, which I'd guess have plummeted since the misguided changes made by the current management. I truly loved the old Albright Knox, visiting several times a year. The new one, supposedly more in keeping with their mission, is a monumental disappointment, and one which I have little desire to visit. Shame on them.
Pros: A beautiful building on a great street in a wonderful city
Cons: great art pieces are gone!
