January 22nd-April 7th the Royal Academy of Arts is presenting the first exhibition for 30 years to examine British sculpture of the twentieth century. The show represents a unique view of the development of British sculpture, exploring what we mean by the terms British and sculpture by bringing the two together in a chronological series of strongly themed galleries, each making its own visual argument.
Valeska Gert's transdisciplinary art is to be paid tribute to for the first time ever in the National Gallery's Hamburger Bahnhof. The Berlin artist, performer and dancer, Valeska Gert (1892-1978) is one of this city's great figures, albeit one who remains vastly underestimated to this day. Her art probes the structures and effects of perception and is communicated here through works taken from the National Gallery's various collections.
