Every year, seven artists win Mary L. Nohl Fellowships, the most prestigious award for local artists, which comes with accolades and fat grants.

Dorothy and Herbert Vogel are not cliched art collectors. They are elderly retirees ? he was a postal worker, she a librarian ? who live in a tiny Manhattan apartment with their cat. What makes this unassuming husband and wife noteworthy is that, on two working-class incomes, over 30 years, they built up a collection of more than 4,000 minimal and conceptual artworks by 200 artists.

The University at Buffalo's Anderson Gallery, a gem of a space tucked into the residential neighborhood near the university's south campus, recently announced its acquisition of several hundred new works for its already significant collection of modern and contemporary art.
