Dr. Albert Michaels resides in Buffalo, New York. He has been in Collegiate Education for over 50 years. He has held numerous positions and won numerous awards for excellence in teaching. He designed catalogs and a book on Buffalo architecture. From my earliest memories my Father has collected art. I remember decorative pieces adorning our living room, walls and even basement. later on in his second marriage his collecting increased manifold. Soon our residence was decorated top to bottom with paintings , scultpture and other decorative pieces similar or the same as you see in this website.Later on after his divorce from his second wife and an unequal partitioning of the collection he surpassed the previous collections in his current residence.
Dr. Michaels collection itself as you see in the photos specializes in many different areas. Regional Art, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, some Mid Century furniture, some Modernism, CoBrA works, primitives, contemporary paintings and sculpture, Art Deco to Contemporary glass and Mexican Silver The overall design of his residence is "Decorative". he specialized in the Decorative Arts. Which, if you are unfamiliar, is a large part of the Fine Arts
I haver been fortunate to watch his collection grow over the years. I have to say he has amazing zeal in his decorative style. Many pieces he has passed to me to enjoy where I reside. He has specialized in regional art and worked diligently to increase the Burchfield Penny Center to one of the great galleries.
