Jenny Holzer
Opens: 05/03/2010 Closes: 16/05/2010 BALTIC, Gateshead
Terrifying truths mark out this significant show of Holzer’s output since 2000. Huge LED installations bearing her politically charged sentences reprise her earlier work, and recent paintings bearing extracts from declassified US military emails and documents refer to occurrences in Guantanamo.

Mat Collishaw - Retrospectre
Opens: 26/02/2010 Closes: 09/05/2010 BFI Southbank Gallery, London

Henry Moore
Opens: 24/02/2010 Closes: 08/08/2010 Tate Britain, London
About as much of an institution as you can get in art terms (well, there’s a foundation in his name), Henry Moore's career helped define 20th-century sculpture. This comprehensive new show gets right up close to his fascination with war, sexuality and primitivism.

Painting History: Delaroche and Lady Jane Grey
Opens: 24/02/2010 Closes: 23/05/2010 The National Gallery, London
Delaroche’s beloved painting of the 16th-century Queen’s final moments encapsulates the post-revolutionary French penchant for English history, with its abundance of usurped Monarchs. Though historical fact makes some concession to emotive content, it’s undoubtedly a masterpiece and is backed here by important loans and preparatory sketches.
