Diane Bertolo (b. 1953), Paragraph(1), 1986; oil and acrylic triptych on paper mounted on board, 16 x 13 inches each; The M&T Bank Collection at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, 1988
A collaborative program initiated with M&T Bank in 1987 focused on development of the Burchfield Penney Art Center's collection by acquiring works by artists affiliated with Western New York, particularly those who were not yet represented in the collection. The art was purchased with funds generously donated by M&T Bank. To celebrate 10 years of collecting together, the Burchfield Penney presented selections from among the 60 works by 38 artists in the M&T Bank Collection.
