Established in Toronto, Ontario
in 1974 by the three artists of the group General Idea (AA
Bronson, Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal), Art Metropole was
one of the first artist-run centres in Canada; it became,
and continues to be, part of the international network of
parallel galleries committed to conceptual art.
The remarkable collection assembled by Art Metropole over
two decades was donated in 1999 by Jay Smith, Toronto, to
the National Gallery of Canada, where its custodianship
is shared by the Library and Archives, and the curatorial
staff of Contemporary Art and Media Arts.
The Art Metropole Collection database contains records
for:
· artists' books and multiples
· video and audio art
· mail art
· posters
· exhibition catalogues
