Trias Gallery started in 1998 as a partnership between Indira Roy Choudhury and Doris Gillick. The name ‘Trias’ is derived from the Greek number for three, represents the relationship between the artist, the dealer, and the collector. Indira holds an Honours Art & Art History Degree from the University of Toronto (1991) and an Education Degree from Queen’s University (1994). She continues to be the owner and director of the gallery. In 2006, Doris retired, moving away from Toronto but remains supportive of the gallery and the two stay in contact. The gallery was situated in the old textile factory known as the ‘Art at 80’ building at the corner of King and Spadina in Toronto. Beyond staging successful exhibitions at the gallery space, Trias Gallery was featured at the Toronto International Art Fair / Art Toronto for 8 years.  Many may also remember the Art presentations that would appear on the movie screens of the old Cumberland Theatre in Yorkville that ran through Trias for 5 years. The work by the gallery artists also featured prominently in the first X-Men movie featuring Professor Xavier’s School, filmed in Toronto’s Casa Loma. Through the generosity of its artists, artwork was donated to many charities and fundraisers, including:  St. Joseph’s Hospital, The 519, Children’s Aid Foundation and the Varley Gallery in Unionville.
