Arts

It can be a little hard to think of venturing outdoors to see even the most enticing of cultural prospects when it’s as cold as it currently is, but there is much to look forward to in 2024 as the temperatures start to rise. For now, I’m staying indoors, wrapped up warm, watching the inimitable Jodie Foster and incredibly charismatic Kali Reis battle across the frozen expanse of Alaska to solve an unnervingly surreal and horrifying crime, as the fourth series of True Detective hits our screens (out now, Sky or NowTV). And I’ll be racing out to see All of Us Strangers – adapted from Taichi Yamada’s chillingly excellent Strangers (Faber), one of my all-time favourite novels – starring Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal, directed by Andrew Haigh (from 26 January).

Hopefully we’ll be through the worst of winter by mid-February, when the Tate Modern’s Yoko Ono retrospective opens. One of the most shamefully maligned figures of our times, Ono is finally given the exhibition she deserves, with her most provocative and powerful pieces and performances being explored. (Yoko Ono, Music of the Mind, Tate Modern, 15 February–1 Sept).
