Visit TORONTO ๐จ๐ฆ Canada Street Art, Galleries, Events, by morrissey1 on Nov 10, 2007 21:53:32 GMT 1, this may be late, as you may already been there and back, but I would definitely go the Queen West section of the city. That's the artsy, interesting part of the city with loads of good book stores and record shops, and galleries. Best book store on Queen West: Pages. Also, check out Magic Pony on Queen Street. They sell a lot of the same kind of things that Kid Robot would sell in NYC. Some nice Kozyndans in Magic Pony, plus lots of other art and cool toys. Hope this helps a little....

How are you mate? How was Bogota? Soooo jealous!
Have you checked out if anything good is on at Government? Don't forget to tip the bar girls, they get really arsey if you don't.
Queen and King are pretty cool for just wondering around.
You been to Niagara? Touristy as f**k but not too far away from there, an hour or so.
Safe travels.

Man there is some seriously cool graf in the alleys off Queen St West. I was talking to some bloke in a shop and it seems that they arrange for some of it to take place, ie the alley looks great with graf all down it versus it being a crap alley! I didnt have my camera but will try and grab some pictures before I head back.
Crackawack Bogota was amazing, not like I was expecting (Mexico was pretty cool as well) and then we had a freak hail storm that brought the city to a standstill, lots of flooding and people making snowmen! It was pretty screwed up.
Hoping to get my work done early and take Thurs off to be a tourist......
Having missed out on Trolleys I treated myself to a ticket to the hockey on Sat night, it was great although I felt very English as the Toronto Maple Leafs lost on penalties.......oh and the Canadians are just too quite for my liking when it comes to supporting the team!!!

AGO is the big one, but the level interest will depend on what the current exhibits are.
Also, this may help: blog.piccsy.com/toronto-activities/30-art-galleries-in-toronto-you-should-know-about

There is a pretty cool exhibition on now The Great Upheaval: Masterpieces from the Guggenheim Collection, 1910-1918. worth checking out. Send me a pm if you are interested in going tomorrow. I live near by, if I'm around I can get you in with my membership.
You should also think about taking a walk through Graffiti alley. Pretty cool. I'm sure london is way better and it isn't NY but still some nice stuff Graf alley
I would also recommend MOCCA An if you like photography The Ryerson Image Centre

Yves Laroche Gallery (Montreal) had a few shep originals. (Small one's pricetag was $8900 cdn I believe)
Chuck Close: 35x28" Self Portrait Woodcut edition of 70, was $42,500 USD
Robert Indiana signed print and Murakami. Indiana was $3500, small Murakami's were $2500
Oil Painting by Charles Bierk was a stunner. Think it was 60x60" Cant remember price.
Project Gallery in LA had an artist named Jeremiah Kille. Im definitely interested and keeping an eye on this dude.
And thats all she wrote, to see more, search the instagram hashtag #ArtToronto

Things got a little heated when the sponsorship wine brand tried to censor the nudity in the photos. Started a pretty hefty conversation in the room, and then this started happening...

Other than that there are tons of galleries but hard to reccomend anything in particular without knowing your preferences. Nothing deliberately 'urban', closest to it may be Hashtag Gallery.
Enjoy the city!!
