Art Shopping Network®: Acquired Taste
Art Shopping Network® (ASN) presents *Acquired Taste*, a two-day live auction, selling exhibition, and cultural program conceived as both an exhibition and a broadcast. Taking place at Homme Gallery in Washington, DC, on May 29–30, 2026, the event brings together established and emerging artists working across painting, sculpture, illustration, photography, printmaking, flyposting, and more. The roster features a cross-generational lineup of institutional, emerging, and street-based practitioners, including alumni from *The Truth In This Art* such as Xenia Gray, Maurice James, and Esteban Whiteside. Collectors can sign up for First Access, which includes entry to in-person Collector’s Previews and a copy of the inaugural physical catalogue, *Acquired Taste Issue 1*.
