The inaugural Acquired Taste publication serves as an editorial companion to Art Shopping Network’s premiere exhibition and live auction program.
Acquired Taste Issue 1 brings together original contributions from artists Alexis Gomez and Shori Sims, alongside an exclusive interview on stewardship with the former personal chef of Chuck Close, whose Self-Portrait (Yellow Raincoat) anchors the exhibition as a featured placed work. The publication is punctuated by a series of archival Polaroids documenting the evolution of Art Shopping Network—from its first virtual art auction to Acquired Taste—capturing collectors and the atmospheres surrounding the program’s development.
Poppy Baker contributes a critical survey of every Acquired Taste auction lot except his own, offering commentary and reflections on the works shaping the exhibition.
Acquired Taste Issue 1 will be available for pick-up at HOMME during the exhibition (May 29–30), with USPS shipping available for readers who prefer delivery.
