Canadian Fine Arts - Toronto

Canadian Fine Arts - Toronto Canadian Fine Arts features historical Canadian paintings by the Group of Seven, Les Automatistes, Painters Eleven, and other significant Canadian artists.

CFA Gallery (Canadian Fine Arts) opened in Toronto in 2000. With over fifty years of experience, Michel Bigué has developed an expertise recognized by both seasoned collectors and major art institutions. CFA specializes in the purchase and sale of important Canadian Art. Our expertise includes turn of the century painters such as Morrice, Suzor-Coté, Cullen, Gagnon and other Impressionist artists of that era. Through the years we have organized important shows and sales of the Group of Seven (MacDonald, Jackson, Harris, Varley, Lismer, Carmichael, Johnston) and some of their famous contemporaries (Thomson, Carr, Milne, Fortin). Post-war artists are of special interest to us. We are looking to purchase important works by the Les Automatistes (Borduas, Riopelle, Ferron, Gauvreau, Barbeau, Leduc, Mousseau) as well as the Ontario based Painters Eleven. We also buy and sell independent artists such as Lyman, Pellan, Colville, Lemieux, Dallaire and Kurelek.

Xiaojing Yan | Back to Painting
October 3–17, 2026

Back to Painting presents a new body of paintings by Xiaojing Yan, accompanied by a small selection of sculptural works made with pearls and cultivated lingzhi mushrooms. The exhibition marks a renewed focus on painting while carrying forward Yan’s longstanding interest in natural systems, material transformation, and processes of growth and change.

Across Pine Current, Drift Field, and Unsettled Forms, recognizable natural references move in and out of abstraction. Pine needles become currents; lines drift across translucent fields; forms gather, dissolve, overlap, and reappear without settling into fixed identities.

Yan’s work has been exhibited internationally at the Royal Ontario Museum, Suzhou Museum, the Canadian Cultural Centre in Paris, Hermès Maison Shanghai, Sharjah Art Museum, Contemporary Calgary, and the Nevada Museum of Art. Her sculpture Lingzhi Girl appeared on the cover of Art in America.

Two of the six new Atticus paintings have already found homes.

Four remain on the walls. Zach is a realist painter whose work is deeply concerned with mood: his nocturnal views of the city use intense artificial light, shadow and atmosphere to transform familiar urban spaces into something quieter and more contemplative. There is an intriguing tension in his paintings between isolation and peace, with moments that can feel eerie, nostalgic and unexpectedly beautiful.

Please join us tomorrow, Saturday, September 19 from 2–5 PM to see the new paintings and meet Zach, who will be at the gallery throughout the afternoon.

Meet the artist. Saturday, September 19, 2 to 5 PM.

We are excited to release a recent arrival of paintings by Toronto artist Zach Atticus.

Rather than waiting until we are able to mount a full solo exhibition, we were excited to get these new Atticus works on the walls! Lots of our visitors have been asking to see more, and this summer produced a compelling suite of works in the studio.

Zach is a realist painter whose work is deeply concerned with mood. His nocturnal views of the city use intense artificial light, shadow and atmosphere to transform familiar urban spaces into something quieter and more contemplative. There is an intriguing tension in his paintings between isolation and peace, with moments that can feel eerie, nostalgic and unexpectedly beautiful.

We are excited to feature contemporary artists like Zach alongside the historical masters we represent—artists whom we believe carry forward a shared ambition: technique, individuality and a desire to make images that are both distinctly their own and genuinely compelling.

Please join us on Saturday, September 19 from 2–5 PM to see the new paintings and meet Zach, who will be at the gallery throughout the afternoon.

We hope to see you there.
