About us

Plural celebrates the best of contemporary art in Canada. Created by and for the galleries, the fair presents and brings together the plurality of voices and works in contemporary art from across the country. It elevates art market practices through a rigorous selection of galleries presenting thoughtfully chosen artists and artworks; and through accessible programming that addresses current issues and questions in the field of art. Plural fosters the discovery of new voices and forms of expression in leading contemporary art and cultivates a sense of collectivity within the Canadian art community.

About the organizer

The Contemporary Art Galleries Association (AGAC) is a non-profit organization that actively contributes to the dissemination and promotion of Canadian artists through its different online platforms, projects and events. The Association's primary mandate is to further develop the recognition and prosperity of the contemporary art market in Canada. The Association also fosters the public's interest in visual arts and encourages the emergence of new contemporary art collectors.

We acknowledge, members of the Association, that the Plural Fair takes place on the unceded traditional territory of the Kanien'kehá:ka Nation, known as Tiohtià:ke. Rich in meaning, this territory remains a vehicle for family legacies and relationships with past generations.

Selection Committee

AGAC would like to thank the 2024 Selection Committee, made up of three visual arts professionals: Jessica Bradley (Independent curator and consultant), Florence-Agathe Dubé-Moreau (Independent curator) and Léuli Eshrāghi (Indigenous Arts Curator, Montreal Museum of Fine Arts).
