The Moore Gallery was founded in 1977 and was located for 19 years in Hess Village, Hamilton.
Functioning as a Fine Art Showroom, Moore Gallery Ltd. worked closely with public galleries and
museums, consultants, corporations, and private collectors in assisting and advising on the
acquisition of works by major Canadian artists.
In 1997 Moore Gallery relocated to the 4th floor at 80 Spadina Avenue, situated in the heart of
downtown Toronto and the lively Queen West strip. High ceilings, wide open spaces, and a vast
expanse of white walls waiting to be hung with contemporary Canadian Masters ... the new
Moore Gallery.
The gallery's mandate is to encourage the promotion and distribution of master works - paintings,
works on paper and sculpture - by contemporary Canadian artists. This mandate has been successfully
met for over 20 years. The Moore Gallery's art selection is recognized as one of the finest in
Canada. It has focused on Canadian Art History, specializing in the art created from the Les
Automatistes of Quebec to the Painters Eleven of Ontario. In addition,
the gallery carries an array of works by the Regina Five, the Isaacs Gang
and the Klonaridis Group of artists.
The Moore Gallery is here to assist both the seasoned and the new collector. We encourage a
dialogue with visitors to the gallery: with our knowledge of Canadian art history we wish to educate
the public in the importance of these artists and the value of collecting their works.
Moore Gallery offers:
- personal service which includes private consultations in your home or office
- art appraisals
- an attractive interest-free term payment plan
- an exchange program
