Raise your hand, anybody who has never wandered off with Alice down the paths of Wonderland! Fans of the novel by Lewis Carroll are in good company - from Salvador Dalì to Yayoi Kusama, many artists have been charmed by the fantastical adventures of the little dreamer. We’ll surely get to know all of them better at the Victoria and Albert Museum in an exhibition which promises to be scintillating. And just like the story of Alice, this exhibition in London is a lengthy voyage full of surprises - from the origins of the novel in Queen Victoria’s England, right up to today, to see the impact that this incredible modern fable has had on art and global culture. Theatrical scenery, large-scale projections, hidden doors and immersive environments accompany the public in discovering 300 objects tied to the curious world of Alice. Through the rabbit hole, re-built in the underground Sainsbury Gallery, visitors will encounter The Beatles and the surrealists, the photography of Tim Walker and Annie Leibovitz, the psychedelic Sixties and the colourful vi-sions of Yayoi Kusama, as well as the original manuscript of Lewis Carroll, the unforgettable illu-strations of John Tenniel, Ralph Steadman and Disney, but also the costumes of the most beautiful dance pieces, films and theatre works based on the story. And finally, an installation commissioned by the museum invites us to go further, diving into the second part of Carroll’s novel, Through the Looking Glass.
For the first time in the United Kingdom, a major exhibition explores the work of Ketty La Rocca, a leading figure in Italian Visual Poetry and Body Art. Over fifty works trace a radical journey through gestures, words, X-rays, and manipulated images. A powerful investigation of language, identity, and the body.
At the National Gallery in London, a remarkable exhibition brings back into focus one of the most enigmatic figures of eighteenth-century British painting, George Stubbs, exploring his quiet revolution in the depiction of the horse, an animal that, for the artist, became far more than a symbol of status or aristocratic refinement.
Cirque du Soleil is ready to renew its beloved New Year's Eve tradition in London, bringing one of its most acclaimed shows: OVO. The production will make its long-awaited return to the historic Royal Albert Hall for a limited run, transforming the iconic arena into a microcosm teeming with life, energy, and breathtaking acrobatics.
V&A celebrates the contribution of the "disabled community" to contemporary design with an accessible and provocative exhibition. Blending fashion, graphics, and technology, Design and Disability reveals how disability can be culture, action, and creative practice. A lesson in freedom and invention.
