About Edith Betkowski, Ottawa’s top photographer and critic. Alpha Art Gallery was founded by Edith Betkowski, the company’s curator, in Ottawa, between 2012 and 2021. She was also an event/exhibition organizer and entertainment host. The gallerist opened a new location on Sussex Street and attracted more than forty artists to the gallery. Today, this visionary and lively gallery moves to a bigger venue. Alpha & Omega, the newest and most dynamic gallery in Ottawa, is located at 539 Sussex Drive. A talented, passionate, and experienced professional, Edith has an intuitive ability to understand art and an extensive network of talented and innovative Canadian artists. The gallerist also has a vast list of trusted buyers who can rely on her to present fresh, interesting, and stimulating artworks from up-and-coming and established Canadian artists. In any community, art gives soulfulness, deepens its spiritual aspect, and improves it as well as refines it. Each encounter with art is tantamount to experiencing one of life’s largest enigmas - the power and beauty of creativity. Such unique encounters are continuously provided by Alpha & Omega. The harmonious blend of pulsating colors on the walls, the mesmerizing notes of the grand piano, and the quotations from books read by local actors transform every evening at this cultural oasis into a notable event. Alpha & Omega Gallery organizes numerous closed and open events that enrich the local community, raise the profile of artists, authors, and musicians, and attract the generous support and participation of local businesses, including restaurants, gourmet chefs, sommeliers, and distilleries.
