Contemporary Art Gallery in Montreal
Galerie C.O.A C.O.A. is a contemporary art gallery established in Montreal in May 2014. Our mission focuses on discovering emerging talents while championing artists with intellectual and physical disabilities, often referred to as 'outsider artists.' We curate a diverse roster of Canadian and international creators whose works challenge conventional norms and redefine artistic perception. All featured artists share a common thread: their creations are uniquely unconventional.The gallery's name, Crateurs duvres Atypiques, directly reflects this commitment to atypical artistic expression. Through curated exhibitions, we provide a platform for dialogue between these distinctive voices and the broader art community. Our programming emphasizes inclusivity, innovation, and the transformative power of art that defies traditional categorization. Visitors experience a dynamic space where diverse artistic perspectives converge in meaningful ways.
