Wu Tsang stages 45+ Picasso works marking The Three Dancers centenary
"This exhibition is an egregious case of "have your cake and eat it". Tate is happy to use Picasso's name to pull in the punters. At the same time, it holds its nose, by implying he's beyond the pale. Is there a glimmer of positivity about any of the manifestly gorgeous and skilful artworks on display? If you find one, let me know."

50+ Nigerian artists redefine modernism before and after independence in 1960
"Nigerian Modernism is a complicated, contrary exhibition, tracing the development of modern art in Nigeria from the period of British colonial rule to the end of the 20th century. Terrors and tremors are threaded through Nigerian Modernism, along with conflicting aspirations and the mess of history. It''s fascinating but frustrating."

40-year Tracey Emin retrospective: 90+ works including My Bed and new paintings
"Walking into Tate Modern's huge Tracey Emin retrospective is like walking in on her crying, naked, sobbing and snotty, as if you have stumbled into something painfully private. Don't come here looking for a good time – you won't find it. But come looking for pure, unapologetic, undiluted, full-frontal love, grief, heartache and sadness, and you will end up feeling more feelings than you've probably felt for years."
