Hopefully the holidays will provide some ‘time off’ for everyone, and you can visit some shows IRL. We’ve compiled our recommendations of events happening around London in December, as well as exhibitions that run through the month. 

Beatrice Dillon’s ‘Taut Line’ at Somerset House Studios, London

If you can’t be asked to leave your bedroom, some online shows we recommend include Erica Scourti‘s new work Note the Ways hosted on Cosmos Carl, as well as the Wrong Biennale running to January 31, 2018 which brings together over 1,600 artists. Rhizome and New Museum are also co-presenting First Look: New Black Portraitures curated by Arian Dean and featuring Rindon Johnson, Hamishi Farah, Sondra Perry, Redeem Pettaway, Pastiche Lumumba, N-Prolentamanuel arturo abreu and Juliana Huxtable.
