Art Unveiled: New Art from the Middle East
Jan 30-May 6
After the gallery’s inaugural show – a muted response to art’s big red Chinese dragon – comes a much less explored area of the Asian contemporary art scene, again courtesy of Mr Saatchi’s deep pockets. What little we know about Arabic art in this country will be greatly enhanced by this exhibition of more than 20 artists hailing from Cairo, Tehran, Beirut, Jordan and other cultural hotspots in the region.

Art Gerhard Richter Portraits
Feb 26-May 31
By painting from photographs, German maestro Gerhard Richter nearly brought about the downfall of both media. His testing of the boundaries between fact and fiction also produced a significant number of figurative portraits, including his seminal series of 48 mugshots of the world’s finest intellects.

Art Baroque – Style in the Age of Magnificence
Apr 4-Jul 19
The latest of the V&A’s thematic blockbusters tackles more than 250 years of sweeping, grandiose gestures in music, architecture, decoration and art. Although baroque and Rome are synonymous, the extravagant style travelled as far afield as Mexico and London, with many of our finest churches, such as St Mary le Strand, bearing that unmistakable Italianate ornamentation.
