Spring is in the air, with a fresh crop of artists from the Artnet Gallery Network that we’ll be watching as we move into the new season. And two of our featured artists currently have exhibitions on view, so you can get out and catch some fresh air as well as a show.
Working across the mediums of photography, mixed media, and painting, across the gamut of representational to pure abstraction, each artist is represented by a gallery on the Artnet Gallery Network, a comprehensive resource where you can search and browse art and artists. So while you should be sure to keep these five artists on your radar, it’s only a small fraction of what you can discover with Artnet.

Hung-Ju Kan (b. 1993) received his BFA in painting and calligraphy from the National Taiwan University of Arts and subsequently his MFA from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Tapping the artististry of both East and West, Kan has developed a practice that leverages both technique and composition to combine the two; Chinese landscape inspired works are overlain with floral patterns, for example, to achieve a unique visual rhythm and engage with ideas around reality and virtuality. Further, referencing the floral patterns of cloth from his home in Taiwan, Kan conveys a sense of the deeply personal.
