Yes, the big institutions and the established galleries bring
out their big shots this week, from Tuttle at Tate Modern and Whitechapel to Polke at the Tate to Serra at Gagosian to Keifer at the RA to Ligon
at Camden to Friedman at Friedman to Barney at Coles to Emin at White Cube...
But why not warm up for Frieze with these less obvious choices? Starting, paradoxically, with blank paper snow...
Another Life, Another World – Paul Nash Works on Paper, 1910-1946 at Piano Nobile, 129 Portland Road - Holland Park
Another Life, Another World – Paul Nash Works on Paper, 1910-1946 at Piano Nobile, 129 Portland Road - Holland Park
Not the trendiest gallery, nor the most accessible, but if
there’s a better – or better documented – new show than these 35 watercolours,
what is it? OK, I suppose, Late Turner, Late Rembrandt but you get my drift...

Maurizio Cattelan Untitled, 2007
A comparatively small auction house emerges from the shadow
of Sothebys and Christie with an amazing, super-visible new statement space with
a star-filled show to match. Actually
Bonham’s new set-up is pretty impressive, too...

The House of St Barnabas, 1 Greek Street - Soho
Karen Knorr: The Flight to Freedom, Durbar Hall, Juna Mahal, Dungarpur
Several private clubs have art collections which non-members can arrange to visit, and the commendably charitable St Barnabas currently has an impressive range, including Keith Amatt, John Baldesarri, Friedrich Kunath, Franz Ackermann, Kendell Geers and a selection of Karen Knorr's FABLES and INDIA SONG series - as well as its own extensive permanent collection.

Not just a rare chance to see a grand and interesting
buidling, but also to experience the double take of photographs of roses so
transformed you’ll think they’re abstract charcoal drawings.

I guess - this being Year Five - everyone knows about the Sunday Art Fair, though not, judged by its roundup of eight other fairs to see, Time Out. Anyway, it's free, manageably-sized, easy-going fun with main fair quality.

Marlow Moss at Tate Britain
Marlow Moss: Composition in Yellow, Black and White, 1949
Last stop for an inspired but little-publicised touring show of the maverick's geometries, and as close as London seems likely to get to the Mondrian double feature at Liverpool and Margate.

Oreet Ashery at Swedenborg House, 20-21 Bloomsbury Way - Bloomsbury
Performance is on the up, and my choice for the week is 21st Century Carpet Sale:A Legendary Collection by Oreet Ashery and various collaborators on 16 Oct, described as 'part catwalk, part punk-rock concert, part emancipated choreograph' as well as a carpet sale! Plus catch the show at Waterside Contemporary.

White Rainbow, 47 Mortimer St - Fitzrovia, and Rodeo, 123 Charing Cross Rd
At White Rainbow, Aiko Miyanaga shows an ever-evolving series of objects made from Napthalene
More galleries are launching than closing after the reverse
in 2013, the highest profile being Marian Goodman and Dominique
Levy. But I reckon Turkey's Rodeo and the Japanese specialists White Rainbow will prove just as interesting.
