Break out your Kleenex. Spring (and all of its pollen) has sprung at last. Good thing we’re still wearing masks to hide those runny noses ;)

Below, we round up 10 shows worth marking your calendars for this month — from Deana Lawson’s highly anticipated Hugo Boss Prize show, to the Bronx Museum’s homage to more feminist futures, and the return of Frieze New York.

In the galleries, Daniella Brito surveys the “profound and timely” Julie Mehretu retrospective now on view at the Whitney, while Hakim Bishara checks out standout work by teen artists at the Met.

Also: Melvin Edwards’s steel abstractions (one of which is pictured above) have finally arrived at City Hall Park, and work by promising teen artists from across the city is on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art through May 21.
