  • Exploring Toronto's Art Scene: Moca, Art Gallery of Ontario, The Power Plant and more…
    This is my first time visiting Toronto, so naturally I was curious about the art scene. While it may not have a huge number of galleries I was really impressed with the museums.
    If you’re from Toronto let me know your favorite places to see art!
    Details about every artist & space mentioned can be found below.

    great video! toronto is a gem and it just screams ART!!! everywhere you turn. a lasting impression was meeting a couple who did a masterpiece in chalk in a square downtown. they figured it might last a week. people would walk on it, dogs would do their thang, the sky would leak water. no matter. just a moment in time to enjoy, celebrate and share art.

    Never heard of Matthew Wong before, and in the first minutes, before the presenter talked about his life, knew nothing of him. Nor has my life been anything like his. Yet, with the very first of his works, I was taken away. Then I learned more, and was overwhelmed.

    My fav. mural in Toronto is on the Flatiron building. You'll also enjoy the view of the core of the city from there - well worth a visit. It's on 49 Wellington St. E. There's also a really cool fountain dedicated to dogs there. Also the small commercial art gallery Beau-Xi Gallery (340 Dundas) right across the street from the AGO always has excellent work happening. Glad you're in town!

    So nice to see you were in our city, glad you enjoyed your trip. I apologize for how expensive our goddamn city is. Some other good galleries worth visiting are Olga Korpor and Christopher Cutts as well as the Arsenal in the west end. Maybe on your next visit. Keep up the good work, always enjoy checking in with you each week.

    El arte es el mayor de los espejos de la humanidad,
    Simplemente porque es el lugar dónde las expresiones,hasta las más profundas gozan de mayor libertad.
    .
    El hombre y un espacio en blanco sin más... pero un espacio en blanco en silencio,un silencio que encierra la sabiduría que va dejando el ruido de lo social,de lo sistemático en el hombre.
    .
    La sociedad adoctrina,el arte libera y nos devuelve un cielo dónde se puede volar

    Urgh, the utter misery of the Toronto art scene… It’s either woke identity politics or pretentious conceptual art. No one cares and the city is culturally irrelevant and we wonder why…
    Pretty dire situation for the 4th largest city in North America and financial capital of the country.
    PS: you said “AOC” instead of “AGO” @25:55. Freudian slip? 😂
