It’s a new year, and with it Agenda’s January writers—Kirsty Bell, Sarah Lehrer-Graiwer, J.J.Charlesworth, Merve Unsal, Adam Kleinman, Karen Archey, Anna Gritz and Media Farzin—have brought us eight brilliantly astute reviews on an eclectic group of shows and an online art fair. In the coming months we’re looking forward to some top notch international shows, including: Michel Francois at Kamel Menour, Paris; Mounir Fatmi at Analix Forever, Geneva; Liam Gillick and Lawrence Weiner at Muhka, Antwerp; Javier Tellez at Arratia Beer, Berlin; and Pierre Huyghe at Marian Goodman, New York. Keep an eye on Agenda for more on these, and other shows soon.
