ok so I've basically lived in these spaces this year (my Oyster card knows the way better than I do) and I needed to write it all down before another opening swallows my brain!! this is the round-up of the London galleries that make me want to quit curating and just STARE at art forever — from big serious institutions to the tiny Peckham unit I can stumble home from after one (ok, two) gallery wines!! obsessed, no notes!!!
