LONDON, MAY - JUNE<br />

Roy Lichtenstein at Tate Modern is a momentous<br />

show, bringing together 125 of his<br />

most definitive paintings and sculptures and<br />

reassessing his enduring legacy. The first<br />

full-scale retrospective of this important artist<br />

in over twenty years, it showcases such key<br />

paintings as Look Mickey 1961 lent from<br />

the National Gallery Art, Washington and his<br />

monumental Artist’s Studio series of 1973–4.<br />

Other noteworthy highlights include Whaam!<br />

1963 – a signature work in Tate’s collection<br />

– and Drowning Girl 1963 on loan<br />

from the Museum of Modern Art, New York.<br />

Here, curator Iria Candela presents some of<br />

the highlights.<br />

The Dairy Art Centre, a new not-for-profit art<br />

center in London’s Bloomsbury district, opened<br />

to the pubic on April 25. Collectors Frank<br />

Cohen and Nicolai Frahm have taken over a<br />

150 sq m former milk depot into a showcase<br />

for art, music and dance. Starting with the<br />

biggest UK show by the multi-faceted Swiss<br />

veteran John Armleder.<br />

Armleder has filled the Dairy’s irregular, casual<br />

gallery spaces and outdoor sculpture yard with<br />

works from the founders’ collections as well<br />

as new paintings and installations designed for<br />

the art centre. Armleder curated the exhibition.<br />

The result is an engaging mixture of<br />

wall paintings, mixed media pieces, “Furniture<br />

Sculpture,” “Pour” and “Puddle” paintings,<br />

neon combines, sculptures and canvas paintings.<br />
