Best in Show 2012

Here's my annual round up of the best exhibitions of 2012. These are the moments when my stomach flipped, brain blew and I got all excited. The reason why I refuse to say all art is rubbish. 

The list below of course does not include my hat trick of exhibitions this year - The Dark Cube at the Palais de Tokyo, E-Vapor-8 at 319 Scholes and Responsive Eyes at Jacob's Island - though of course they were a big focus for me...

1 Documenta (for so many reasons)


2 Bronze at the Royal Academy of Arts London


Ghosts in the Machine at the New Museum


4 Les Maitres du Desordre at Musee Quai Branly


5 Antoine Catala at 47 Canal Street

Ed Atkins at Chisenhale



7 Bruce Lacey at Camden Arts Centre


8 One on One at KW Berlin (especially for Jeremy Shaw's incredible hypnotic video installation)


9 Jeremy Deller at Hayward Gallery


10 The Historical Box at Hauser and Wirth
