Why artists from Buffalo join L'Original

A gallery brings credibility, collectors and visibility. L'Original combines a physical presence in Montréal with online reach, so your work meets buyers far beyond Buffalo, while keeping a fair share of every sale for the artist.

Buffalo & Montréal: the same creative energy

Montréal has become one of the world capitals of street art and contemporary art, so much so it's often called artists' "new New York": a more accessible cost of living than New York or London, a thriving scene (murals, festivals, galleries, artist-run centres) and collectors open to new work. Artists in New York and the surrounding area often share that same energy; joining L'Original connects your local practice to this creative hub and its collector network.

How to apply

Prepare 8–12 coherent works with photos, dimensions and prices, plus a short artist statement, then submit your application. Our team gets back to you, wherever you are.

Exhibit and sell beyond Buffalo

Many artists in New York and the surrounding area struggle to find buyers locally alone. By joining L'Original, your work is shown in our two galleries, at 163 rue Saint-Paul Ouest (Old Montréal) and 4455 rue Saint-Denis (Plateau), and in our online shop, making it visible to collectors everywhere, shipped across the United States. You keep your roots in Buffalo while reaching a national market.

Artists from Buffalo

Buffalo has produced artists like Charles Burchfield, Cindy Sherman and Robert Longo, proof of a living scene. Yet getting known beyond the local market stays hard: joining L'Original connects your work to collectors in Montréal and across North America.

Renowned modern-art city, anchored by the Buffalo AKG and a tradition of visionary landscape painting.
