McBride Contemporain opened in 2018 with a focus on showcasing the work of prominent living Canadian artists. Its programming bridges institutional, commercial, and public contexts, reflecting a curatorial approach rooted in long-term collaboration and exchange. While the gallery connects with collectors and museums across the country, its base inside the Belgo Building—Montreal’s densest cluster of contemporary art spaces—grounds it in a local ecosystem. From this fourth-floor space, McBride Contemporain plays an active role in shaping how new work circulates in and beyond Quebec.
