PARAÍSO: Latin America, Together in London
The first thing you saw when you walked into PARAÍSO was a stack of letters. The Mexican conceptual artist Felipe Ehrenberg fell in love with the British postal service while living in exile in England in the late 1960s, and made it his medium. A show of his mail art was meant to open in 2016, but was cancelled when his health failed. Ten years later it finally hung at the entrance of London's new Latin American art fair. I could not think of a better welcome.

Alexandra Resnikov: Building Bridges Between Art, Culture, and Contemporary Dialogue
Much of contemporary art, at least implicitly, engages with the human condition. So what does an exhibition titled Human Being add to a subject that is already so familiar? Alexandra Resnikov’s answer, staged at the Mandarin Oriental Savoy in Zurich last October, was to shift both the context and the terms of the conversation.

Seeking Otherness: Latvian photographer Eva Duman on difference-seeking and soul-capturing
Photojournalism finds one of its fathers in the Scottish photographer John Thomson, who in 1873 travelled through rural China with one of the first portable cameras, a “dark mysterious instrument” which, combined with an intensified eyesight, held the power “to pierce the very souls of the natives, and to produce miraculous pictures by some black art” (John Thomson, Illustrations of China and Its People, 1873 to 1874).
