Magic
Pony is a gallery, studio and retail space dedicated to expanding
the traditional notions of fine art and design by presenting work
that blurs the boundaries between art, commerce and creative living.
We look for products with a sense of humour, innate style and creativity
that hasn’t been cornered.
Magic Pony is located in the Queen West Art District
in Toronto, Canada. We collaborate with multi-disciplinary artists
to create unique exhibits and products. Designer
toys, apparel, printed matter, plush and multiples are showcased
alongside more traditional forms of artwork giving a unique perspective
into an artist’s complete body of work.
The Magic Pony space was created by Steve Cober and Kristin Weckworth
in 2002. It began as a small circle, with Pony importing a rare
selection of designer toys from Asia and selling it to a small group
of collectors. This space grew to a website and the website grew
to a larger shop. Finally, the shop grew to incorporate a gallery.
Today we exhibit both local and international artists, including
Kozyndan, Gary Taxali, Team Macho, C'est Moi Ce Soir, Sonja Ahlers,
Derrick Hodgson, Space 1026, Dalek, Nathan Jurevicius, Nicoletta
Ceccoli and Gary Baseman. To complement each art exhibit we work
with the artists on creating and showcasing products for the retail
space.
Most of the products we carry are limited edition, so the shop is
always changing and this adds to the enjoyment of our space. One
month you may come across hand drawn walls and forest creatures
by Nathan Jurevicius, the next you might find a mural representing
giant colouring book pages by Kozyndan, and next you might discover
sinister Space Monkeys invading our space by Dalek.
Magic Pony was created for people to enjoy, learn and be inspired.
We say "for creative animals" because we have created
a space that allows people an outlet to showcase work and connect
with other creators and enthusiasts.
