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, McEwen and Daudelin, 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.
Galerie Simon Blais is a member of the Board of the Contemporary Art Galleries Association of Montréal (AGAC), and an associate member of the Art Dealers Association of Canada (ADAC).
