About us

Since opening its doors in 1996, Angell Gallery has presented some of the most critically noteworthy exhibitions in Toronto.

Angell Gallery

Supporting both emerging and mid-career artists known for taking risks in their work, Angell Gallery has established a reputation for forward-thinking, unconventional, and intelligent programming.

One of the early pioneers to the area of Toronto that has since become known as the West Queen West (WQW) Art + Design District, Angell gallery strives to support artists and guest curators working in the advanced currents of contemporary artistic practice.

Further to its fostering of local artists within their own community, Angell Gallery endeavours to represent the works of its artists on a broader, international scale. Over the past few years, Angell Gallery has established a consistent and growing presence on the international art fair circuit. As a result, the gallery has succeeded in widening its collector base, and has drawn the attention of top international curators and art professionals.

The Globe and Mail writes

"The enthusiasm is fitting. Mr. Angell loves the Toronto art scene with an unusual passion, and his commitment to it has done much to transform an area that at one time seemed an unlikely place for collectors."
