Kyle Beal Art Projects (KBAP) is an art gallery located on Treaty 6 territory in Edmonton Alberta, and organized by Canadian visual artist Kyle Beal, and situates itself within a long tradition of artist-gallery endeavors. KBAP operates from a position of interest in exhibiting diverse conceptual and material practices. The gallery presents (more or less) bi-monthly exhibitions by local and national contemporary art practitioners; looking to establish relationships between emerging and mid-career artists, collectors, and audiences. Located within Dana Holst studio, KBAP seeks to nurture a sustainable, vibrant program that blends aspects from artist-run and commercial art gallery models.
Beal has spent his adult life working in the visual arts as a exhibiting contemporary artist as well as on the service side of arts working with collectors, galleries, institutions and framing, installations, and advisement; the gallery offers a opportunity to promote practices of interest to him.
