However, the first and second generation Abstract Expressionist artists began to go in their own directions, and new art movements in 1960s including Pop art would became more currently fashionable. In light of those developments Ward expanded the gallery beyond having only a permanent stable of artists, and began bringing forth artists of various movements to exhibit, including: Joseph Cornell, Edward Dugmore, John Ferren, Ian Hornak, Alex Katz, Lowell Nesbitt, Conrad Marca-Relli, Edward Dugmore, Marisol Escobar, Joan Mitchell, Isamu Noguchi, Larry Rivers, Richard Stankiewicz, Cy Twombly, Jack Tworkov, Andy Warhol, and Wilfred Zogbaum. By doing this Eleanor Ward established a reputation for the Stable Gallery as a meeting place for both great emerging and established artists of the time.
By 1960, the Stable Gallery had moved to 33 East 74th Street in New York, a location that possessed enough space for the gallery exhibition area. The building was also large enough to contain living quarters for Ward on the ground floor, opening to the garden at the rear. 1970 would mark the closure of the Stable Gallery, which came about very quickly and unexpectedly after Eleanor Ward stated that: due to the evolving commercialization of Fine Art and her personal loss of interest in what was becoming contemporary in the art world, that she would prefer to act as a private art consultant rather than operate a gallery, which she considered to have evolved into simply a business and no longer a passion.
