Exhibition: The Art Gallery Problem


  • Dazibao 5455 Avenue de Gaspé Montréal, QC, H2T 3B3 Canada (map)

Curator: Fraser McCallum

From February 5 to April 4, 2026
Opening on February 5

Curated by Fraser McCallum and co-presented with The Blackwood, University of Toronto Mississauga, The Art Gallery Problem appropriates a well-known math problem which asks, “What is the minimum number of guards or surveillance cameras necessary to observe an entire gallery?” Including an array of forms and approaches by different artists, the exhibition expands upon the problem to ask: Do norms of exhibition and display serve audiences and galleries alike? What are the alternatives to reification, permanence, ownership, and surveillance? What are other ways for living with objects?
