Gazing upon General Hardware Contemporary, did you ever imagine this art space once housed nuts and bolts? Gallerist Niki Dracos saw past the hammers and saws. She envisioned a haven for contemporary art. Dracos transformed this former hardware store into the General Hardware Contemporary in 2010. The gallery retains some of the building’s original features. Exposed brick and an antique safe now share the space with thought-provoking paintings and sculptures. General Hardware Contemporary sits along Queen Street West at 1520. Inside, you’ll find works by artists such as Alex Bierk, Celia Neubauer, and Stacey Tyrell. The gallery represents a diverse roster of established and emerging artists. Stop by between Wednesday and Saturday to experience the unique blend of old and new at General Hardware Contemporary. Take a moment to appreciate Bierk’s “Rainbow on DVP & Index.” Or explore the latest exhibition. The gallery encourages visitors to relax in the sunny window seat. Soak in the art and the vibrant energy of Parkdale. General Hardware Contemporary represents a unique blend of Toronto’s past and its vibrant artistic present.
