In the unrelenting year-end swirl of grading, final reviews, impending global�upheaval, and extra holiday-related chores, you�probably�have a�nagging feeling�that you’ve missed some�good shows. And�perhaps you’re wondering about the exhibitions�that are�opening in January. For me, the antidote is putting�together a list of exhibitions, checking out�some work, either online or IRL, and getting�my mind back into painting after the holidays. Here are some recommended shows.
