April 21 to 23 2023

Grand Quay of the Port of Montréal

Plural 2023: a memorable first edition! Presented by National Bank, the Plural fair was held from April 21 to 23, offering visitors several new features and an unparalleled experience on the two floors of the Grand Quay in the heart of Montreal's Old Port.

The Contemporary Art Galleries Association (AGAC) is proud of this inaugural edition, which consolidates the status of the Plural fair and of Montreal as an essential hub for discovering the best in Canadian contemporary art. In addition to undergoing a rebranding, the event expanded to include 49 Canadian galleries, a record number of exhibitors.

AGAC was delighted to welcome just over 8,000 visitors to the event, the same number as last year. The public, which included art lovers from all backgrounds, were able to discover, admire and acquire the incredible selection of works presented at Plural.

Galerie Simon Blais was founded in 1989 and initially specialized in works on paper and contemporary abstract prints. 
Today, the gallery represents both emerging and established artists working in diverse media such as painting, drawing, sculpture, prints and photography. 

Historical paintings and sculptures are also a special interest for us, with a focus on leading Québec and Canadian artists such as Riopelle, Ferron, Letendre and McEwen, which are regularly presented in the context of exhibitions. 

A dynamic space, the gallery is known both within Canada and abroad through its participation in various contemporary art events around the world.
