Galerie Cosner

Tucked within Montreal’s vibrant art scene, Galerie Cosner awaits. It’s a treasure trove of Canadian masterpieces. Galerie Cosner isn’t just a gallery. It’s a testament to the passion of Robert Tremblay. He started his journey 30 years ago, dealing in Canadian and Quebec antiques. His love for art blossomed, transforming him into a connoisseur of Canadian visual arts. He even chaired and auctioned at l’Hôtel des Ventes Universelles, the precursor to Cosner Auction. These auctions graced prestigious venues like the Capitole de Québec, the Ritz-Carlton Montreal, and the Windsor Hotel’s ballrooms. In 2011, Cosner Auction evolved into Galerie Cosner. Its mission? To showcase and sell Canadian art. The gallery, located in downtown Montreal, unveils hidden gems from private collections and estates. It offers the public a unique opportunity to admire and acquire these treasures. Galerie Cosner expanded its reach in June 2016, opening a second gallery in the iconic Ritz-Carlton Hotel Montreal. This gallery upholds the hotel’s high standards. It presents an exquisite selection of works by Canadian masters. Galerie Cosner’s mission goes beyond mere transactions. It seeks to build trust between collectors and galleries, offering guidance and expertise. Managing an art collection can be complex. The gallery’s team provides support for acquisitions, evaluations, and even when it’s time to part with cherished pieces. Galerie Cosner helps clients find the perfect artwork, whether it’s a first purchase or a collection’s final touch. The gallery emphasizes a pressure-free environment, ensuring a high quality of available paintings. Their commitment lies in empowering clients to make informed choices.
