The Best Photography Galleries in Toronto

The best photography galleries in Toronto offer a reminder that the city's art scene is good at dealing with chaos. Our mayor may be wild and our city in construction shambles, but boy do we show off some excellent photographic talent. From the Contact Festival to Ryerson and OCAD's versatile photography programs, to a bunch of our talented Instagram photographers, Toronto's photography scene in particular shines bright as a beacon of art hope.

This wasn't really the case a decade ago. While galleries like Stephen Bulger and Corkin have been around for the long haul, many spaces on this list are more recent (say, the past five years) additions to the local arts scene. With the continued rise in the popularity of photographs as fine art, the strength of our galleries isn't much of a surprise, but it is a very good thing for those of us who count photography as their medium of choice.

Here are the best photography galleries in Toronto.
