The best exhibitions to see in London in 2024, from CUTE at Somerset House to Francis Bacon at the NPG

There's no city better than London for art, and this is a hill we are prepared to die on. This year is looking particularly rich, especially for women artists, with a bumper crop of solo and duo exhibitions across public institutions, for both contemporary and historical figures, raising their profile higher than it's ever been.

Along with an exploration of our obsession with all things adorable, an in-depth look at the life of a Roman legionary, a major show paying homage to one of Britain's most celebrated supermodels and a show revealing how Black painters are rethinking landscape, it's going to be an amazing year of exhibitions in the capital.
