Pangée may be small in scale, but its impact on Montreal’s contemporary art scene has been quietly significant. Founded and directed by Julie Côté, the gallery operates out of a century-old building that once housed the Czech Consulate, perched just above Parc Mont-Royal. Inside, Pangée focuses on work that blurs the line between personal narrative and formal experimentation, with a curatorial eye that leans both playful and precise. Its roster spans local and international artists in the early and middle stages of their careers, often brought together through shared material instincts or thematic parallels rather than rigid curatorial frameworks. The exhibitions—often shaped through collaborative relationships between artists and curators—invite open dialogue rather than one-way interpretation. With a team that includes Clara Puton and Mary McNee, Pangée continues to act as a site of discovery and connection, refusing to separate critical rigour from creative joy.
