Or Gallery

Or Gallery is a non-profit artist-run centre that was initiated as a project space by Vancouver artist, Laiwan in 1983. Or Gallery strives to be a space of discourse and risk-taking in the production and consideration of contemporary art and related discourses, education and professional mentorship. Serving as a space that engages with the overlaps and connections between artists, curators, writers and cultural workers, the Gallery supports local and artistic communities through both professional and general-interest lectures, workshops and other outreach activities, which often include community-initiated programs. Or Gallery publishes artist books, editions and anthologies, and since 2010, has operated a small bookstore featuring local, small press and imported publications.
