About Martin Murphy

Martin Murphy is a Canadian artist working out of Toronto and Vancouver. His large oil on canvas paintings evoke a timeless traditional look and feel, focusing on the human figure. His figure work focuses on texture, anatomy, and realism, which has been influenced by his background in professional dance and visual effects for film. Martin is an elected member of the Society of Canadian Artists and an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists.

About Steven Schmid

Steven Schmid is a Bahamian interdisciplinary artist whose work explores themes of masculinity and otherness through painting, collage and assemblage. Adopting Hip-Hop production and sampling as a visual practice, Schmid’s current research explores how laughter, humour and play can imagine more expansive representations of Bahamian masculinity and individualism. He has exhibited in several galleries and fairs including Gallery House in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, TERN Gallery in Nassau, The Bahamas, The National Art Gallery of The Bahamas and SCOPE Art Fair in Miami, Florida, United States. Schmid received his BFA in Film, Video and Integrated Media from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in 2016 and a MFA in Interdisciplinary Art, Media & Design from Ontario College of Art & Design University in 2022. He currently lives and works in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Gallery House is unlike any commercial gallery in the world. We deliberately partner with commercial galleries and work with curators at institutions on behalf of our artists. We have garnered attention from some of the top institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art – New York, Bristol Arts Museum – United Kingdom and numerous partnered galleries in over fifteen countries and growing.

Gallery House artists assume an ambitious presence at the following art fairs each year: Art Toronto, Hamptons Art Market, AAF Battersea, AAF Hampstead, AAF Amsterdam, Art Amsterdam, Scope Miami, Art Belgium, Art Stage Singapore, Art Fair Tokyo and more.
