Robin Simon's Daily Mail weekly choice

‘Miró, Calder, Giacometti, Braque: Aimé Maeght and his artists’
Royal Academy, London, until 2 January 2009
Admission charge

The highlights of this show are works by Bonnard and Matisse, who do not appear in the title, although Braque is represented by major work. The rest reveals how the dealer Aimé Maeght conjured major reputations out of the whimsical creations of Miró and Calder. The jury is still out on Giacometti.
