Royal Academy, Burlington House, Piccadilly, W1J 0BD

Exhibitions: , Art, Sculpture, Photography, Painting, Gallery, Installation, Drawing, Performance Art, Video, Printing, Architecture, Media

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 second season, and this time it looks brilliant.

Whilst the first instalment was a slightly unfocusd attempt to bring the Royal Academy up-to-date, but this time, the show - subtitled Earth - Art of a Changing World - has a more defined agenda, which should help to pull things together.

The issue is climate change, and there are so many brilliant artists involved (Sophie Calle, Edward Burtynsky, Mona Hatoum and Antti Laitinen alongside the usual household names) that there should be something here for everyone.

Until 31.01.10.
