The Calendar: Five Exhibitions Worth Crossing a City (or Ocean) For

From Old Master devotionals to pop-bright pools and couture turned sculpture, this season’s cultural calendar spans centuries and sensibilities. In New York, the Met revisits Raphael’s quiet power, while London lines up a trio of must-sees: Tracey Emin’s raw second act at Tate Modern, David Hockney’s color-soaked worlds at Serpentine North, and the V&A’s Schiaparelli show where fashion becomes art. Round it out with The Design Museum’s deep dive into Wes Anderson’s meticulous universe, and you’ve got a passport to five very different ways of seeing.
