November - The Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York simultaneously breaks ground on its new $160 million dollar expansion project (dubbed AK360) and closes until the undertaking's planned completion date of 2022. Funds raised for the new development include a $42.5 million dollar challenge grant given by Western New York native Jeffrey Gundlach, (the largest single gift ever to a Buffalo cultutsl institution and to which he later added a further $10 million dollar sum). When the museum reopens in 2022 it will be known as the Albright Knox Gundlach Art Museum.[4][5]
