About

The Next Contemporary is a space dedicated to spotlighting, advocating, and showcasing QBIPOC artists and those who have been historically marginalized from the mainstream narrative, founded and directed by Farnoosh Talaee, an Iranian Canadian curator and art advisor based in Toronto. The gallery is rooted in progressive thinking that results in curated thought-provoking group exhibitions that embrace diversity, equity, and inclusion of artists of all cultures, religions, genders, sexes, orientations and dis/abilities, ages, and stages aiming to build a path onward to convey their visions within Canada and beyond.
