Good news seems rare these days. Fortunately, there is art. It provides the inspiration we all need, and helps us deal with a world that is increasingly complex. At M, we are happy to contribute to that. This sixth edition of our biannual magazine is once again packed with fascinating stories. Read all about M's stunning alabaster exhibition this autumn, meet a promising Belgian artist and look ahead to Playground, the Live Arts Festival. Enjoy reading - and see you soon at M.
