A reflection on the 2017 exhibitions that left a mark: the extraordinary Soutine show at the Pushkin Museum, its rare loans from the Louvre and Orsay, and the magnetic force of Soutine’s painting. We contrast his depth with the spectacle of Cai Guo-Qiang and revisit a “Garage” photography show that raised bigger questions about what art actually does.
