The Schendel show, featuring some 250 works by the late Swiss- Brazilian artist, examines everything from her abstract geometrics to ’60s typographies. Meanwhile, Genzken’s quirky sculptures es and lacquered canvases show her unexpected ted approach to mixing materials, whether brightly coloured lights or mirrored d foil. ‘Mira Schendel’ runs through January anuary 14, 2014 at Tate Modern, Bankside, London. www.tate.org.uk; e.org.uk; ‘ ‘Isa Isa Genzken: Retrospective’ runs from m September 14, 2014, to January 4, 2015 at the Dallas Museum useum of Art, 1717 North Harwood, arwood, Dallas. www.dallasmuseumofart.org asmuseumofart.org
