Formed in Vancouver in 1984, Grunt Gallery is one of the oldest artist-run centres in the city. The gallery has built a reputation on innovation and cutting edge program exhibitions, performances, artist talks, publications and special projects that showcase current and past work by contemporary Canadian and International artists. We focus on work that would otherwise not be seen in Vancouver and are proud of our ability to act as an intersection between various cultural groups based on aesthetics, medium or identity. Grunt gallery’s programming is dynamic and we have been a long time supporter of First Nations contemporary art in Vancouver and British Columbia.
