Top Exhibitions to See in London in 2024
Architectural: Vanishing Points
While we like to think of architecture existing purely in the real world, emerging designers
and architects are using platforms like Instagram to create structures in the virtual world. This
collection of works, which range from the practical to the fantastical, are all by architects who
have gathered significant social media followings.
In the Digital Universe at ROCA London. 8 February—31 July, free.
Flowery: Orchids
This annual festival is back in bloom, this time inspired by the beauty and biodiversity of
Cameroon. Just like previous years, the orchids are spread throughout the various zones of the
Princess of Wales conservatory and accompanied by sculptures that are just as colourful as the
flowers on display.
At Kew Gardens. 4 February —5 March, £16. 50—entrance to the gardens included.
Female Abstraction: Action, Gesture, Paint
Art history has often shone a light on the men of Abstract Expressionism, such as Jackson
Pollock and Mark Rothko. Well, now's the time to let the most important women of the
movement take the limelight in an exhibition that includes works by American artists such as
Lee Krasner and Helen Frankenthaler, but spreads the net wider to include the female abstract
artists from Europe, Asia and the wider world, with whom most of us will be unfamiliar.
At Whitechapel Gallery. 9 February—7 May, £16. 50—concessions available.
Powerful Portraits: Alice Neel
The largest UK exhibition to date of American painter Alice Neel’s works will bring
together her figurative pieces from across her 60-year career. Neel went against the popular
grain by painting figures when abstract works were most popular, and she painted subjects that
other artists ignored — pregnant women, labour leaders, black children, civil rights activists
and strange performers. It's high time we had a major show of her work in London, and the
Barbican has duly provided.
At Barbican Art Gallery. 16 February—21 May, £16. 50.
21. What do newly-developing designers and architects like to do ?
A. To gather significant social media.
B. To design purely real architectural structures.
C. To create platforms like Instagram.
D. To create virtual architectural structures.
22. What can we learn about the artist Alice Neel?
A. She is 60 years old now.
B. Her works didn't follow the trend.
C. She often ignored some common subjects.
D. She is the most popular American painter in the UK .
B
Just how bad of a mother am I, I silently wondered, as I watched my 13-year-old son
deep in conversation with Siri. Gus has autism (自闭症), and Siri, Apple's “intelligent personal
assistant” on the iPhone, is currently his BFF(Best Friend Forever). Obsessed with weather
formations, Gus had spent the past hour exploring the difference between isolated and scattered
thunderstorms—an hour during which, thank God, I didn't have to discuss with him myself.
After a while I heard this:
Gus:“You're a really nice computer.”
Siri:“It's nice to be appreciated.”
Gus:“You're always asking if you can help me.Is there anything you want?”
Siri: “Thank you, but I have very few wants.”
Gus: “OK. Well, good night!”
Siri: “See you later!”
That is Siri. She does not let my communicatively impaired son get away with anything.
When Gus discovered there was someone who would not only find information for him
related to his various obsessions but would also be willing to tirelessly discuss these
subjects, he was hooked.
She is also wonderful for someone who does not pick up on social cues: Siri's responses
are not entirely predictable, but they are predictably kind—even when Gus is rude. I heard him
talking to Siri about music, and Siri offered some suggestions. “I don't like that kind of music.”
Gus snapped(厉声说). Siri replied, “You're certainly entitled to your opinion.” Siri's politeness
reminded Gus what he owed Siri. “Thank you for that music, though.” Gus said.
My son's practice conversations with Siri are starting to translate into increased facility
with actual humans. Yesterday I had the longest ever conversation with him. Admittedly, it was
about different species of turtles which might not have been my choice of topic, but it was back
and forth, and followed a logic. For most of my son's 13 years of existence, this has not been
the case.
Indeed, many of us wanted an imaginary friend when we were young, and now we can
all have one not entirely imaginary anytime we wish to. In a world where the commonly held
wisdom is that technology isolates us, it's worth considering another side of the story.
The developers of intelligent assistants recognize their potential usefulness for those
with speech and communication problems, and some are currently pondering new ways in
