The Albright-Knox Art Gallery has figured out a great way to get art history into the hands of youth. It will launch new interactive mobile gaming App Saturday. WBFO'S Focus on Education reporter Eileen Buckley says the new game App provides interaction with art history.
The free ArtGames 2.0 App features eight-video games -- all inspired by eight-different artists and artworks from the Albright-Knox. The AK Innovation Lab teamed with Daemen College's International Center for Excellence in Animation. Other partners in the App creation include All Things Media from New Jersey and Empire Visual Effects of Buffalo.
