Move with us!


After more than 20 years, the last day of business at our 788 King Street location is Tuesday June 26th. 
Art Metropole will then temporarily close and re-open to the public on Wednesday July 11th at our new location at 1490 Dundas street west. (just west of Dufferin St.) 

Throughout this time our website (www.artmetropole.com) featuring our full inventory remains up and running and ready for new orders. We can also be reached at info@artmetropole.com
 
Our new location on Dundas is now open to visitors and the space is currently the site of an installation by the New York-based, Canadian artist Robin Cameron. The last day to see this exhibition is June 28th.

Conceived as a book expanded into an exhibition space, T-R-U-T-H  is the culmination of obsessive research referencing many disparate sources, ranging from short stories to cinema, and from hoaxes to philosophy. A web of connections is created around a single topic: Truth. These include short stories written by Lydia Davis, every film that Jean-Pierre Léaud has starred in, a hoax about a Temporary Tattoo that contains LSD, and the interpretation of Lacan’s theories about Lack. Book pages give the viewer insight into the individual works, each relating back to the overarching theme. With each exhibition of the project, T-R-U-T-H is considered an edition of a book in the making – with each version arranged slightly differently than the last. 

We welcome your visits at either location and thank you for your support during our big move!
