“Glass Exchange”
Candice Breitz

There actually are 1,001 pieces of videotaped film in the boxes, though we can’t find out what they are without destroying them as artworks.
Kai Althoff goes with Bernard Leach

Althoff shows himself in conjunction with what is in itself a significant show of 50 ceramics by Bernard Leach (1887–1979)— mostly pots, jugs and tiles but also two drawings, several buttons and a necklace. All in all, then, as unpredictable as you would come to expect.
“Radical Figures: Painting in the New Millenium”

Ten painters, ranging in date of birth from Daniel Richter in 1962 to Tschabalala Self in 1990, make up the Whitechapel Gallery’s survey.
Mona Hatoum

Mona Hatoum’s context is well known: she grew up in Beirut in a Palestinian family who had fled Haifa in the face of Israeli intimidation. In 1975 she visited London, found she could not return to Lebanon due to the outbreak of civil war and has remained in Britain since.
Georg Baselitz

Two years ago the Gallerie dell’Accademia initiated a program—coinciding with each Venice Biennale—of showing modern art in its newly refurbished ground floor spaces. The idea is to examine the influence of traditional techniques on current practices. First came a widely acclaimed Philip Guston show, now Georg Baselitz follows.
Carolee Schneemann

This an exhibition with an agenda. Carolee Schneemann (born 1939) is famous for her performances and their filmic and photographic records in the period bracketed by Meat Joy, 1964, and Interior Scroll, 1975. The exhibition “Kinetic painting” at Museum Für Moderne Kunst proposes, first, that her work should be seen as expanded painting, thereby challenging the received primacy of medium, and, second, that her whole oeuvre— more than 300 works— should be attended to seriously, from the 1950s through to her current production.
“Surreal Science: London Collection with Salvatore Arancio”

Italian-born artist Salvatore Arancio has created an unusual one-room exhibition. It combines historic objects from the collection of London-based retired banker and author George Loudon with his own works, integrating the whole into a display akin to the tradition of the cabinet of curiosity.
Cinthia Marcelle

Mid-career Brazilian artist Cinthia Marcelle (born Belo Horizonte, 1974) first came to my attention for photographs she’d made together with the South African artist Jean Meeran, in which Marcelle disappeared into the landscape, dressed in a cape with matching colours so that self and city elided (“Capa Morada”, 2003).
