Born in Hungary, Odon Wagner de Zólyom’s passion for fine art was nurtured as a student at the Academy of Applied Arts at Vienna where he graduated an Akademischer Konservator (Professional Conservator) after four years of training. His education led to work in the conservation departments of major institutions such as the Louvre Museum at Paris, the Vienna Prehistoric Institute, and the Royal Ontario Museum at Toronto. In 1969, Odon Wagner established the Gallery on Davenport Road, Toronto, where it continues to this day.
Rafael Wagner completed his Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree at Queen’s University at Kingston, Ontario in 1995. Thereafter he operated a small business for several years, as well as being employed at the Gallery which included participation in the fine art fairs of Hong Kong, Singapore and Miami. Rafael joined the Gallery full-time in 2004 after reading law at the University of Windsor. Rafael was also a member of the Granite Club’s Art Society Committee.
