Hommage aux pionniers
« Un regroupement de signatures de l'art urbain montréalais. Il faudrait peut-être qu'un musée songe à une véritable rétrospective ? Le milieu institutionnel a toujours du retard pour reconnaître ce qui se passe au présent. »Read the article

Good to know
Frequently asked questions
How do I find the artwork that suits me?
PickArt shows you artworks one at a time: keep the ones that speak to you, dismiss the rest. Sixteen choices are enough for the tool to read your taste and point you to the closest artists. You do not need to describe what you want or know anything about art beforehand.
Are the artworks originals or reproductions?
Every painting we sell is a one-off piece, made and signed by a living artist we represent. We do not sell mass-produced reproductions. When a work is offered as a print, the listing says so plainly and names the artist behind the original.
Can I buy if I do not live near a gallery?
Yes. The whole catalogue is available online and we ship worldwide, in 3 to 10 working days, with packaging built around the piece. Walking into one of our Montreal galleries is a pleasure, never a condition of buying.
How much does a painting cost?
Catalogue prices start around $745 and rise with size, technique and the artist. Every listing shows its price and dimensions, so nothing is quoted after the fact.
How do I commission a custom mural?
You describe the wall, its surface and the effect you are after. We put forward the artists whose style matches, then send a quote before any sketch begins. Our artists have painted 1200 murals around the world, on company lobbies and living room walls alike.
Where are L'Original's galleries?
We run two galleries in Montreal, open every day from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. One sits at 163 Saint-Paul Street West in Old Montreal, the other at 4455 Saint-Denis Street in the Plateau Mont-Royal. Entry is free and no appointment is needed.
Why sell your work through L'Original?
We exist so that an artist reaches buyers beyond their own city. Your work is listed for an audience we ship to worldwide, and shown in two physical galleries. L'Original is a non-profit organisation: sales exist first to keep the artists we represent working. Applications are filed online in a few minutes, wherever your studio is, and we look at the work itself rather than at a résumé.
