Thursday, 2 December 2010 - Sunday, 30 January 2011

Royal Academy, Burlington House, Piccadilly, W1J 0BD

How Much: £7.00 (Highest Price) , £3.00 (Lowest Price)
The Royal Academy's contemporary art extravaganza in association with GlaxoSmithKline (ooh edgy) returns for a third season, and this time it looks brilliant.

The issue this time round is fashion, its relationship to art and impact upon our sense of identity - both individual and collective.

The first two instalments of GSK Contemporary were a little patchy and unfocused, but with work on show by the likes of Gillian Wearing, Yinka Shonibare and Hussein Chalayan, Art Fashion Identity is certainly worth a look.

Until 30.01.11.
