The best art galleries of Montreal

On my short visit these were the best choice of art galleries in Montreal
East:
Parisian Laundry: Janet Werner
It empty when I visited the really 'great' gallery but thanks to the rich publications I was able to get a very good impression of the artists they show.

DownTown: (actually uptown):
Galeries d'Art Contemporain du Belgo

If you only can go to one place in Montreal this is the place to go, plenty of different "level" galleries, little information though. The best time to try Wednesday to Saturday from 12 to 5 pm.
