To get your journey started, below we’ve rounded up five artists to follow that caught the eye of our dedicated team this month.
Brandon Sadler at Fu Qiumeng
Based in Atlanta, Georgia, multidisciplinary artist Brandon Sadler (b. 1986) taps elements of American street art and traditional Asian art forms—namely calligraphy—in his practice to create distinctive compositions that are decidedly his own. Salder studied painting and illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design and has worked with numerous high-profile brands including Marvel Studios, Disney, and Google. His work is currently on view in the group show “Transcultural Dialogues: The Journey of East Asian Art to the West” at Fu Qiumeng Fine Art in New York.
Lavar Munroe at Monique Meloche
Bahamian-American artist Lavar Munroe (b. 1982) maintains a diverse practice that includes painting, mixed-media works on paper, and sculptural installation, largely constructed with cardboard. Monroe’s work explores folklore, fables, and films and their underlying themes, which he parallels with autobiographical elements. Recently, he was included in a group exhibition at Monique Meloche Gallery, Chicago, “Collage Culture,” speaking to the artist’s unique contributions to visual multimedia discourses.
Sangree at Sean Kelly Gallery
Comprising artists René Godínez-Pozas (b. 1986) and Carlos Lara (b. 1985), and based out of Mexico City, artist collaboration Sangree is recognized for their explorations of mediums including photography, ceramics, and film, and focus on ideas around nature, pop culture, and evolving technology. Sangree was recently included in a group show at Sean Kelly, Los Angeles, “It Never Entered My Mind,” curated by Michael Sherman. The two artists known as Sangree began working together in 2009 on a photography zine, which has subsequently evolved into the expansive practice they are known for today.
Yanqing Pei at Latitude Gallery
Originally from Foshan, China, and presently based in Queens, New York, Yanqing Pei received their first M.F.A. from the China Academy of Art, Hangzhou, in 2017, and second from the Pratt Institute, New York, in 2021. Pei’s paintings convey a sense of suspended time and otherworldliness, stemming from the artist’s investigations of interconnectedness between humans and the contexts in which they exist. Pei’s work captures the lyrical qualities of existence and perception, tapping into the language of poetry, narrative, and Chinese ideographic characters.
Norman Gilbert at Arusha Gallery
Norman Gilbert (1926–2019) was born in Trinidad to Scottish parents. He ultimately studied art at the Glasgow School of Art, where his distinctive style—which conveys elements of both European and Trinidadian visual culture—first developed. With a career that spanned nearly 60 years, Gilbert’s oeuvre shows a continuous evolution of style and approach, while highlighting the themes, patterns, and compositional arrangements that made his work recognizably his own. He described his work as “silent, static, and hopeful,” which can be understood through his contemplative arrangements, idiosyncratic use of perspective, and unabashedly chromatic palettes.
