The gallery started small but quickly gained popularity, contributing to the emergence of art movements such as Neo-Expressionism and Street Art in the area. The East Village became a hub for these new artistic expressions. However, the gallery closed in 1985 due to waning interest.

A triptych is an artwork divided into three sections or panels, often hinged together, allowing it to be displayed open or folded shut. It is a type of polyptych, a term for multi-panel artworks. Typically, the central panel is the largest, flanked by two smaller panels, although some triptychs have panels of equal size. Triptychs have been historically significant in religious art but are also used in contemporary works.
