So here you go, this is your last chance to see some of the best shows of the year.

Read the review. While the big, imposing, hefty men of mid-century American abstraction were trying to reshape the course of art, Joan Snyder was doing something quieter, but no less important. Now 84, Snyder has spent her life using abstraction not for grand gestures, but for smaller, personal ones. Written across the walls of this career-spanning show is a lifetime of emotions and feelings, of memories and experiences, in big bursts of shape and colour. Britain obviously comes out of this badly, as it should.
Leonardo was a blockbuster renaissance artist, and so were Michelangelo and Raphael, two younger artists who were in the same city at the same time, competing for the same attention and big money commissions.
This show pits them against each other as rivals in the turbulent era of Florence. Letizia Battaglia was a witness, she was there. She saw the mafia tearing Italy apart in the s, murdering its sons, raping its daughters, and she documented all of it with her camera. There are some incredible photos here.
