Time Out No. #83 | Tuesday 9 November 2021

If you need proof that London is back open again, just look at what the capital has got lined up for you this month. The winter ice rinks slide into town, there’s the brilliant-looking Pitchfork Music Festival, there’s a kind of futuristic Medieval feast in a former hotel behind Selfridges and a major V&A exhibition of the lavish bling of Carl Fabergé. Plus, Time Out’s very own celebration of seasonal toddies, Hotboozapalooza, is back, baby.

Unmissable art galleries

Autograph is more than just an art gallery, it's a research centre and advocacy charity that – since 1988 – has used photography to explore issues of race and identity. It’s heavy-hitting, essential stuff.

Designed by Turner Prize-winning architecture collective Assemble, this gallery in a Grade II-listed former Victorian bathhouse seems hellbent on ignoring all the usual art conventions and putting on whatever challenging shows it bloody wants. Which is a really, really good thing.

Some of the best shows in London over the past decade have been put on by the Vinyl Factory, and now it finally has a permanent home: a huge brutalist office block on The Strand. Concentrating on relentlessly ambitious AV work, it puts on immersive exhibitions that are genuine must-sees.

There’s more to sustainable eating than just going veggie or vegan. We look at the London restaurants and bars who are using technology, agriculture, recycling, clean energy and a ton of imagination to create a new generation of clean, green cuisine, which also tastes pretty flipping amazing. There’s even a restaurant inside a butcher’s shop. No, really.
