The sidebar to the right is where you’ll find our past featured artists, offering a wider understanding of both contemporary and historical art. These are organized chronologically; however, several notable artists are featured below with links directly to their respective pages. 

AN IMPORTANT NOTE : a number of the Artist You Need To Know features have links out to the CCCA Database. This impressive archive of both contemporary and historical Canadian artists was created and maintained by Bill Kirby for many years; it is now hosted at Concordia University. Some of the links in our archive may be broken but you can access and search the artists on the new CCCA site at https://ccca.art/artists/
