Han Modern & Contemporary Art re-opens in Westmount

Han Modern & Contemporary offers sculptures in addition to paintings

Following a very difficult period at the close of 2021 due to the passing of gallery founder Andrew Lui, his wife Cloe Ng and Gallery Manager Sabine Gilbert began 2022 and the new Lunar Year of the Tiger with a sense of hopeful optimism. While still situated at the bustling intersection of Sainte-Catherine Street and Greene Avenue in Westmount, the gallery has been rebranded and redefined in more than just designatory terms – the gallery space has also been reinvigorated with fresh coats of beige paint, a contemporary open-plan layout, and a deep red window display that has been catching the eyes of passersby.

Han Modern & Contemporary proudly specializes in Canadian art, with an analogous focus on European and Chinese modern and contemporary art movements. Following in the legacy of Han Art Gallery, which was initiated by the late art dealer and prominent artist Andrew Lui in 1995 and managed by Chloe Ng, we have been a team of reputable gallerists in Canadian and international art markets for over three decades.

Gallery visitors can step back and appreciate the works on the main wall

Throughout the years, this unique gallery has placed an emphasis on refined aesthetics and innovative daring, which both incorporate and exceed Canadian boundaries. Nestled by the picturesque Greene Avenue in Westmount, Han Modern & Contemporary especially promotes and celebrates the distinct individuality of a range of historical, mid-career, and emerging artists native to Canada, Europe and beyond. Many of our represented artists have been exhibited in established art institutions, and many have additionally had their work acquired by Canadian and international museum collections.

The gallery is spacious and accommodates
large surface paintings

At the heart of Han Modern & Contemporary’s numerous exhibitions, which unfold either in our own gallery space, other private galleries, fairs (Art Toronto, Palm Beach Modern and Contemporary, etc.), and art institutions, we curate acclaimed exhibitions that span the figurative and the conceptual. These exhibitions interweave fine art landscapes (such as Dorothy Knowles, Alex Cameron, Gregory Hardy, Graham Fowler), hyperrealism and realism (Luciano Ventrone, Tong Luo), Color Field artists (William Perehudoff, Paul Fournier), bold painterly, expressive abstractions (Kittie Bruneau, Andrew Lui), contemporary portraiture (Louis Boudreault) and ethereal bronze sculptures (Anne-Sophie Morelle).

In addition to our various gallery shows, we have extensive experience dealing with the Canadian, American, and European secondary art markets in matters pertaining to acquisitions, consignments, and deaccessions.

We would like to thank you all for your continuing support and patience, and we look forward to catching up with you very soon!
