The Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery at Concordia University is committed to researching, exhibiting, documenting and disseminating contemporary art in a local, national and international context. Through its exhibitions, its educational and public programs and its publications, the Gallery promotes a greater awareness of art as a critical form of knowledge and as a way to engage in larger cultural debates to the general public, art communities and to students and young adults. The Gallery collects Canadian art. The Gallery’s programme of exhibitions, events, activities and publications focuses on artmaking today and on its recent history as it interfaces with various curatorial strategies. All projects are the result of a specific curatorial approach. Public programs are an inherent part of projects but also can revolve around non-exhibition based issues. Collaborators from various disciplines and fields of interests participate in our projects and activities.
