ART: Jasper Johns at the Royal Academy
Something Resembling Truth is the first comprehensive survey of the artist’s work to be held in the UK in 40 years, comprising over 150 works. Famous and recognisable pieces aside, we especially liked his late-period sequence, Regrets (2013). Until 10th December, Royal Academy W1, tickets here.
MUSIC: London Jazz festival is back in KX
FOOD: Franco Manca spawns again
They’re hardly the small, family-run Brixton wood-fired sourdough pizzeria who’d command queues around the block these days (partly because they’re more ubiquitous than Pizza Express) but this latest opening is a good budget option if you’re lost in KX on a budget and need food fast and cheaply. Pizzas still hover way below a tenner (starting at £4.95), beers are ‘no label’ and come in under £4, with house wine £15.50. Not bad for the area, anyway. 62-68 York Way N1
