You’ll enjoy a guided tasting of four Black Chalk wines while learning the symbolic meanings behind various foods and instead of following traditional pairings, you’ll craft your own combinations that resonate with your personal tastes and emotions. This immersive experience will deepen your understanding of how flavours, aromas, and emotions can come together to create something truly unique. The exhibition features a new series of paintings which resonate with the architecture and collection of Sir John Soane, the architect of Pitzhanger Manor. Watt’s practice, rooted in a fascination with light, echoes strongly with Soane’s innovative manipulation of light to shape space and create atmosphere. The pioneering artist’s first solo presentation in a UK public art gallery, having previously collaborated with Dior and Solange Knowles. Renowned for her large-scale paintings drawing on the tenets of Black feminist theory, Mickalene is the first Black femme artist to have a scholarship in her name at the Yale School of Art.

At some points it felt like dreamfair my eyes were going to melt right out of my skull and form little sad puddles on the ground, but they didn’t; I ran the gauntlet of London’s art calendar and lived to tell the tale. That tale is one filled with some very bad art, some very okay art, and, luckily, some very good art. The Freddie’s Flowers team will be at the fair all weekend long to lend a hand with all your floral needs, available to buy as a subscription or as a one-off gift.

The Shopping List: Brilliant things to buy this week

Set against the backdrop of the world’s biggest cities, each of our fairs is different. We combine boundarypushing, yet always accessible artworks from over 100 independent artists with immersive installations, performances and a few curious encounters. The result is an inspiring, evocative, inclusive and fun event that reframes how art can be perceived and creates lasting connections between artists and art lovers. As the only global art event dedicated to representing independent artists since launching in 2011, The Other Art Fair has worked with over 3,000 artists from more than 20 countries, and now hosts 11 fairs each year across the UK, US and Australia. With their distinct approach to collecting, PAD fairs epitomise how artistic genres across time and periods interact to reveal astonishing combinations and create the most individual and striking interiors.

This was a show all about colour, spiritualism, indigenous histories, religion and craft, and how they made Brazilian modernism so special. Colonialism, space exploration, dub, medical experiments; Bahamian artist Tavares Strachan’s exhibition at the Hayward was a sweeping, ambitious, chaotic display that drew countless links between African history, slavery, religion, jazz, hip hop, ancient Egypt and science. It was dizzying, complex, ungraspable, just like the hidden histories it was giving much-needed attention to.

Immerse yourself in a site-specific installation by renowned artist Ya La’ford, commissioned by Visit Tampa Bay, official destination partner of London Art Fair 2025. Despite the shortage of collectors willing to sell, plenty of collectors were happy to buy. They just weren’t buying at the top of the market, according to Clare McAndrew’s Art Basel and UBS Survey of Global Collecting, published in late October. McAndrew found that, while spending was down by 32 percent, total volume of sales was actually up. This year, the house closed a deal with Abu Dhabi’s ADQ sovereign wealth fund for the investment of nearly $1 billion (promptly used to retire debt), bought the storied Breuer Building, and laid off at least 150 staffers across the company.

Doig has accumulated a substantial vinyl archive and in-depth knowledge of musical genres over decades. For House of Music, Doig will bring his archive to life through a sculptural installation of rare, restored analogue speakers. During the exhibition Doig will invite a roster of musicians and other music enthusiasts to animate this ‘high fidelity’ equipment with their own selection of vinyl through a series of residencies. Born into a humble home during an unsettled time in Japan’s history, Utagawa Hiroshige (1797– 1858) went on to become one of Japan’s most talented, prolific and popular artists.
