Not everything feels “normal” just yet, but this autumn’s fully packed arts calendar certainly does. And the spate of shows like a restaging of a monumental Diane Arbus retrospective and screening of Meriem Bennani and Orian Barki’s delightfully kooky lizard videos that opened in September were just the beginning: October will see Alex Katz mark a career milestone with a takeover of the Guggenheim Museum, Paris host its first-ever Art Basel, and so much more. Here, a guide to all the goings-on you’d do well not to miss.

The Mexico-born, New York-based multimedia artist’s latest come tinged with nostalgia: He’s added reproductions of torn scrapbook pages and DIY posters from his youth to his arsenal of materials, which per usual include thousands upon thousands of beads. The show, which also includes a new group of paintings, opens a day into Miami Art Week on November 28.
