Recently on Agenda
Over the last couple of weeks Agenda has seen reviews of surprisingly diverse practices and presentation formats: Paddy Johnson on Kai Althoff’s solo show at Gladstone, New York, April Lamm on two sound performances by Annika Eriksson and Olaf Nicolai respectively at VW (VeneKlasen/Werner), Berlin, and Filipa Ramos on the group show “Are you Glad to be in America?” at Massimo De Carlo, Milan. Fresh off the press today is Karen Archey’s review of the Armory, ADAA The Art Show, and Independent. More coming soon from Octavio Zaya on Elmgreen and Dragset at Helga de Alvear, Madrid; Kirsty Bell on Cerith Wyn Evans at Galerie Neu, Berlin and Vivian Rehberg on Joachim Koester at Jan Mot, Brussels.The Armory, ADAA The Art Show, and Independent, New York
