When art people speak of dealer Catriona Jeffries, they invariably say one of two things. One is along the lines of, 'She's doing for her artists what other dealers in Canada can't.' The other, usually heard from international types eager to show off their cultist, intimate knowledge of the Vancouver scene, is, 'It's the only commercial gallery that matters in Canada.'
