January brings a slew of new shows, and a common theme is people who are pushing against the boundaries of their disciplines or their times. Whether its artists like Barbara Chase-Riboud, who is finally getting the recognition she deserves after seven decades of making work, or the UK premiere of Nan Goldin’s documentary, which features intimate footage and interviews with her as she shifted from downtown documentarian to global activist bringing down dangerous pharmaceutical companies. I hope these shows will help clear the cobwebs to give you a fresh perspective, and some much-needed inspiration, on the world around us.
