It’s America’s favorite pastime. It’s every boys’ favorite game. It’s one of the commonplaces of America. Which all make it one of the richest subjects in art. This exhibition features a collection of paintings, sculptures, prints, and memorabilia that trace the history of baseball. Kind of like Cooperstown comes to Philadelphia, this exhibition is a special tribute to the sport and all that it has inspired in all of us. Artists represented include Ben Shahn, Claes Oldenburg, John Martin, William Merrit Chase, and Robert Rauschenberg.

It may still be 20 degree Celsius, but that’s winter in Hong Kong. Australian artist Stephen Eastaugh must be finding it like a tropical heatwave since he spent much of last winter in Antaractica. He has gathered together paintings and drawings he made while living in sub-zero temperatures and created an exhibition charting his travels. The artist says the name ‘S.S.S.S.S.I.’ stands for ‘Site of Special Scenic, Scientific and Sacred Interest’.

This hugely successful musical moves from London’s West End across the Atlantic. Based on songs by megapopsters ABBA, it’s simultaneously a greatest hits concert and a coming-of-age story about a mother and daughter preparing for the daughter’s wedding. Original, comic and touching, it ingeniously weaves over 20 of the group’s best known songs like ‘Dancing Queen’, ‘The Winner Takes It All’, ‘Knowing Me, Knowing You’ and, of course, ‘Mamma Mia’ into award-winning British playwright Catherine Johnson’s funny and poignant script.

This exhibition plays tribute to the celebrated Biedermeier painter Eduard Gaertner. Known for their simplicity and clarity, his light-drenched pictures depict views of Berlin in the mid 19th-century before the founding of the German Reich. His subjects include everything from monuments and churches to cabarets, factories and country estates. It is the first time all Gaertner’s works have been brought together in a single show. As well as marking the second centenary of his birth, the exhibition is timed to coinicide with a host of events celebrating the 300th anniversary of the proclamation of the kingdom of Prussia.

The remains of the
sixteenth-century Rose, the first of four playhouses to be built at
Bankside, were rediscovered in 1989 during excavations on a site where
new office buildings were due to be erected. The extensive remnants,
some two-thirds of the original site, would have been built over were
it not for the campaigning of a group of actors, scholars and ordinary
theatre-loving punters. Currently there’s a sound and light exhibition,
with a video narrated by Sir Ian McKellan, aimed at raising awareness
of the Rose. In the longer term, the Rose Theatre Trust wants to see
the site fully excavated (during which time the public can watch the
archaeologists at work) and open to all – this is pending further
funding being raised.
