Sell your art in Nantes
Are you an artist in Nantes looking to show and sell your work? L'Original represents a large network of professional artists and actively welcomes new talent, with a physical gallery in Montréal and an online shop whose works are shipped from Montréal to France.
Whether you are in Nantes or nearby, you can apply directly instead of waiting to be discovered.
Why artists from Nantes 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 Nantes, while keeping a fair share of every sale for the artist.
Nantes & 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 Pays de la Loire 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 Nantes
Many artists in Pays de la Loire 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 from Montréal to France. You keep your roots in Nantes while reaching a national market.
