Now have PDFs of reviews of Antony Gormley at White Cube, Jannis Kounellis at Parasol Unit and Sachin Kaeley at Seventeen Gallery.

Also got a piece behind this paywall on impact vs collections in museums.

I've been workshopping some short stories at Birkbeck, on one of their short courses.

Wrote a brief, ostensibly funny comment piece for the Independent on working from home (pegged to the Yahoo story on flexible working). Also reviewed Will Storr's first novel for the Independent on Sunday.

Reading: Jesus's Son, Kate Clanchy's Samarkand, Russian Debutante's Handbook.

Haiti & contemporary art

I wrote a piece for The White Review comparing the recent work of Atis Rezistans at Nottingham Contemporary to Don Dellilo's Falling Man, Joseph O'Neill's Netherland and Bill Viola's The Passions.

Reading: Sentimental Education, Angels (Denis Johnson), Gogol's edited stories. Denis Johnson's work is incredible.

I'm about to do three lectures/workshops for Kingston University's arts journalism department. You can find the class-notes for the arts news/features lecture here (access using QuickTime; pause on each slide).

Post-war & contemporary

I wrote a piece off the back of the Hirst/Gagosian split, pegged to ArtTactic's latest figures on the post-war & contemporary art market, for The Evening Standard.

Reading: Werewolves in their Youth; Reading Like a Writer (Francine Prose); Leviathan (Philip Hoare); Dubliners.

Elmgreen & Dragset @ Victoria Miro

Review of Elmgreen & Dragset for January Modern Painters; again click on the image to read.

Thomas Houseago @ Hauser & Wirth

Reviewed Thomas Houseago for December's Modern Painters; click on the image to read. 

Reviewed Gormley at White Cube for Modern Painters. Filed a piece to Museums Journal on exhibition sound design, published here. The Art Newspaper piece was published at the beginning of December; essentially looking into corporation tax paid by commercial art galleries. It's online here.

Reading: What a Carve Up; Robinson Crusoe; Gulliver's Travels; Every Love Story is a Ghost Story; Anna Karenina; William Trevor (picking from The Collected Stories).
