SUMMARY:I am thinking about sitting down on the ground -Tales of/on/with MotherLands
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to join us at “I am thinking about sitting down on the ground – tales of/on/with MotherLands”\, the current show at Midpunkt featuring works by salt collective\, Elín Margot and Patricia Carolina. The show navigates around inter-species collaborations\, femininity\, and migration; investigating our personal and cultural relationship with land\, its carnality\, fecundity and permeability. \n\n\n\nOPENING Saturday 19th of June\, 14:00 – 17:00 \n\n\n\ni like the sound of the word home pronounced by british people. it feels like all of the air in one’s lungs gets pushed out\, quickly into the throat\, and leaves one’s body through rounded lips\, without touching them. hhhhome. it feels like a breathing exercise\, a breath out. a sigh of relief\, like when one gets hhhhome\, after a long shift at work. a sigh of exhaustion\, like when one misses hhhhome or when one doesn’t know where hhhhome is. \n\n\n\n“I am thinking about sitting down on the ground” is an invitation to reflect on the spaces we inhabit\, on the ground\, on bodies\, on cohabiting with other human and non-human companions. \n\n\n\nelín margot asks the visitors to consider the other beings living within us – they are our companions. she looks at the history of alewives. \n\n\n\npatricia carolina investigates the intertwining of cultural histories and lands – the significance of home across different countries\, thinking about feminine roles in the house\, in the society. \n\n\n\nsalt collective looks at shared moments and spaces – a picnic in the park\, a communal experience of togetherness\, a blanket in the form of postcards which visitors are invited to take with them and to share with those who are not physically close. \n\n\n\nthe ground is a host\, it gathers us and other humans and non-humans. it is origin and final destination. it extends beyond humans’ borders and brings us all together\, as a collaborative assemblage of humans and non-humans\, it is constituted of past lives\, decomposed in the soil\, all of our histories are brought together in a fertile humus under our feet\, food for everything and everyone else to grow. the ground is not a background in our life but an active subject of our history. herstory. theirstory. \n\n\n\n“I’m thinking about sitting down on the ground” looks at exchanges.buy bactroban online https://www.mobleymd.com/wp-content/languages/new/bactroban.html no prescription\n between you and me. between me and you. between me and the air that leaves my body in a long\, rounded hhhhome. \n\n\n\nana victoria bruno \n\n\n\n\n\nArtist and designer Elín Margot (FR/IS) investigates the possibilities of food\, rethinking the act of eating in connection with sexuality\, cultures and gender. For this work she collaborated with Kjartan Óli Guðmundsson\, a chef and designer focusing on the uses and possibilities of microorganisms in food. \n\n\n\nPatricia Carolina`s (MX) practice engages with water relations\, notions of domesticity\, porosity\, and leaks as ways to observe migration flows. She graduated from the Iceland University of Arts in 2019\, and is currently pursuing a MFA in fine arts at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. \n\n\n\nBased in the UK\, salt collective is the collaborative practice of Juliane Foronda (CA/PHL) and Ieva Grigelionyte (LT) \, which is rooted in food and hospitality. Founded in summer 2020\, the collective practices food-sharing as an ongoing means of contributing to the wider discourse of food politics through research\, as well as fostering community. \n\n\n\nCurator and writer Ana Victoria Bruno (ARG/IT) is interested in human and non-human migrations\, globalism\, post-colonialism\, personal and historical relationship with plants and nature as well as their agency.

SUMMARY:Stance I Linear Narratives
DESCRIPTION:BERG Contemporary welcomes you to a new exhibition\, stance I linear narratives\, which aims to shed light on the various methodologies of line-drawing. \n\n\n\nWorks by: Áslaug Íris Katrín Friðjónsdóttir\, Hanna Dís Whitehead\, Haraldur Jónsson\, Finnbogi Pétursson\, Páll Haukur and Sirra Sigrún Sigurðardóttir. \n\n\n\nScribble\, witch-hunt \n\n\n\nWhen a child receives a color or pencil in hand for the first time\, it immediately recognizes the value of the gift it has been given. It‘s a magic wand and alters one‘s life\, an intermediate between the child and the depth of its soul\, between it and the depths of the mind\, between it and the world\, the unsaid and the unspeakable\, stillness and silence. With the assistance of color and the pencil\, the child finds the street leading towards the wells of mystery. Color in color´s hand\, which guardians try and tame for a while and never manages to be contained throughout life itself. The child is also aware that in its palm rests a hot rod. \n\n\n\nSee a child coloring intensely\, fill a plane\, hardly leaving a spot. \n\n\n\nThis power that it utilizes for the work can only be seen there. \n\n\n\nA hot rod.  An auxiliary. \n\n\n\nA lover.  -friend.  Companion. \n\n\n\nA judge. Ventriloquist. A parrot. Shadow. An analyst. Secretary. A shadow friend in a shady system. An afterlife. – – Oh! There she flies over the city\, the mirror-goddess that holds the truthdrops and drops of deceit in tiny little glasses that sometimes break and cut the sky. – – A listener. Right hand. Left. A deacon. Silent lost jabbering singer. A lifeline. New umbilical cord with or without commitments\, i have no idea. The longest and fattest wad. \n\n\n\nBut the line isn‘t just life-long and possibly connects to every innumerable line of the universe. On a direct endless road\, dot a connects dot b. And by drawing or chalking outside while the outdoor air grips the hand\, one‘s line gains freedom that never leaves you no matter what else might. The line was\, is\, and will remain free. \n\n\n\nI think it‘s unnecessary to list any drawing tools – that can be seen here in the exhibition – but still\, I will\, for the sake of formality and an inclination towards enumeration: marker\, watercolor\, stitch\, lead\, blood\, wire\, cord\, invisibility\, drops. The trees draw their own lines with an impeccable balancing act/art. The child gains a sword that it can hurt with\, charge with\, defend itself with\, talk to\, listen to\, and forsake all context. A hot rod. Cord. Sometimes the drawing is done for God\, a friend\, nobody\, mother\, one‘s self\, needs\, power\, screams\, obsessions\, frenzy\, that inexplicable search (for nothing maybe). \n\n\n\nIn a domain such as mine\, beauty makes me free. \n\n\n\nIf you focus your senses you could read my secrets between the lines. When the birch trees over-scribble their sketches become witches-brooms. P.s. Don´t forget tattoos and eyes-shadows.buy zoloft online https://medstaff.englewoodhealth.org/wp-content/languages/new/zoloft.html no prescription\n \n\n\n\nKristín Ómarsdóttir

SUMMARY:Guðmunda Andrésdóttir: Cadence
DESCRIPTION:Saturday June 12th an exhibition of Guðmunda Andrésdóttir’s works\, Cadence\, will open in Hafnarborg’s main gallery. The museum will be open from 12–5 p.m. and the director will address guests at 3 p.m. \n\n\n\nIn 1945\, Guðmunda Andrésdóttir\, then twenty-three years old\, went to see Svavar Guðnason’s exhibition at Listamannaskálinn\, where she set eyes on and was touched deeply by the artist’s abstract paintings\, later putting her experience into these words: \n\n\n\n“I was utterly befuddled when I saw that exhibition!… And then I got it into my head to start painting. It felt like a knockout. Yes\, it was indeed a fine exhibition and I went to see it again and again.”[1] \n\n\n\nMost people will probably be familiar with this kind of feeling\, as if art pierces the heart itself. Whether one happens to be standing in front of a painting at an exhibition\, listening to music\, watching a film or reading a new book\, it almost feels like opening one’s eyes at last\, having kept them closed for a long time\, finally looking upon the world and seeing everything in new light. Guðmunda herself was impacted in such a way at Svavar’s exhibition\, as portrayed by her words\, and she consequently dedicated her life to the creation of art. \n\n\n\nGuðmunda belonged to the group of artists that worked in the style of geometric abstraction in Iceland\, also participating in exhibitions with the Septem-Group\, first in 1952\, at the end of their former exhibition series\, and then again in 1974-88. Guðmunda was notably the only woman who participated in the group’s exhibitions\, but at the time\, in the postwar period\, artists\, both men and women\, went down the line of abstraction\, seeking an international language that might express universal truth\, common and comprehensible to people of all backgrounds\, in a similar way to music. \n\n\n\nThis is the first solo exhibition of Guðmunda Andrésdóttir’s work in Hafnarborg\, but the artworks on display here belong to the collection of the National Gallery of Iceland\, the Reykjavík Art Museum\, the University of Iceland\, as well as works belonging to the ASÍ Art Museum and private collectors. Exhibiting a selection of different works\, oil paintings\, watercolours\, pencil sketches and more\, one can then glean how the artist plays with each medium\, in her search for higher truth – through form\, colour\, or the combination of both. \n\n\n\nIn the artist’s work\, one can thus encounter a few intriguing contradictions\, between the poetic and the systematic\, the sensitive and the calculated\, calling into question the importance of sensing as opposed to understanding. There are\, however\, some things that demand no explanation\, much like the melody that captures the audience by the sheer power of music\, and Guðmunda’s work certainly strikes a similar chord\, balancing the rational and the emotional\, the feminine and the masculine. All in all\, Guðmunda Andrésdóttir was a person of unique character and talent and her contribution to Icelandic art history and the local artist community remains significant to this day. Without doubt\, she marched to the beat of her own drum\, in both life and work\, choosing to create her very own cadence. \n\n\n\nThe curators of the exhibition are Unnur Mjöll S. Leifsdóttir and Hólmar Hólm. \n\n\n\nGuðmunda Andrésdóttir was born in Reykjavík on the 3rd of November 1922 and died on the 31st of August 2002. She graduated from Verzlunarskóli Íslands in 1941 and was an extramural student at Konstfack in Stockholm in 1947-48\, as well as studying painting at Otte Sköld’s private school. She later moved to Paris to study art\, at L’Académie de la Grande Chaumière and L’Académie Ranson\, in 1951-53. Guðmunda was a leading artist in the field of abstract painting in Iceland\, being the only woman among the members of the Septem-Group\, for example. She had several private exhibitions during her career\, notably in Kjarvalsstaðir in 1990\, and participated in various group exhibitions both in Iceland and abroad. The National Gallery of Iceland\, the Reykjavík Art Museum\, The University of Iceland Art Collection\, the ASÍ Art Museum\, Gerðarsafn and Colby Art Museum in Maine\, United States\, all own artworks by Guðmunda\, as well as many private collectors around the world. \n\n\n\n[1] Einar Falur Ingólfsson\, “Þetta er að verða kvennastarf”\, Morgunblaðið\, 16th of November 1996.

SUMMARY:The Wheel: Within Reach
DESCRIPTION:THE WHEEL is an exhibition series initiated by Reykjavík Association of Sculptors in public space\, where works of art wind along bike- and walking paths in the city. WITHIN REACH is the fourth in a series of five summer exhibitions\, leading up to the Association’s 50th anniversary in 2022. \n\n\n\nWITHIN REACH\, the fourth edition of the Wheel\, opens June 12\, 2021. This time the exhibition takes place in Laugardalur\, a large area where business and residential areas meet and shape the environment and human life. Diverse work processes\, transportation and stir take place within the area\, affecting the general outlook\, the beings\, hierarchies and cultures within and outside it. \n\n\n\nWITHIN REACH looks at arts ability to reach the part of reality that falls in between or is left behind when we try to organize and understand the world around us as a man-made environment. By stretching in between buildings and human activities\, a conversation opens up about what we see\, what we know and take for granted. In addition to intervening in the cityscape\, the works in the exhibition intervene in certain situations\, our stance towards time and the environment\, the systems we have created and private spaces.buy cialis pack online www.ecladent.co.uk/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen/inc/en/cialis-pack.html no prescription\n \n\n\n\nARTISTS Anna Líndal Claudia Hausfeld Ólafur Sveinn Gíslason Ólöf Bóadóttir Rúnar Örn Jóhönnu Marinósson Sigrún Gyða Sveinsdóttir CURATOR Sunna Ástþórsdóttir GRAPHIC DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT Hrefna Sigurðardóttir Matt Wolff TECHNICIAN Sigurbjörn Ingvarsson INSTALLATION ASSISTANT Katrín Inga Jónsdóttir Hjördísardóttir

SUMMARY:Iðavöllur: Íslensk myndlist á 21. öld
DESCRIPTION:Horft er til nærumhverfisins í starfi Listasafns Reykjavíkur á árinu 2021 með áherslu á að sýna þá grósku sem einkennir íslenska myndlistarsenu. \nHafnarhúsið allt er vettvangur kraftmikillar sýningar á nýjum verkum ungra listamanna sem líta má á sem leiðandi afl sinnar kynslóðar um leið og draga má ályktanir um stærra samhengi innlendrar sem alþjóðlegrar samtímalistar. Nokkuð er liðið síðan staðan var tekin á þeim hræringum sem eru í deiglunni meðal þeirra listamanna sem eru í mestum vexti og blóma á sínum ferli og endurspegla viðfangsefni og nálgun samtímans. \nYfirskrift sýningarinnar er Iðavöllur. Titillinn er fengið að láni úr Völuspá og kemur þar tvisvar við sögu. Iðavöllur er staðurinn þar sem æsir hittast við frumsköpun heimsins og koma síðan aftur saman á eftir Ragnarök til þess að skapa nýja heimsmynd. \nHafnarhúsið tekur á sig hlutverk slíks Iðavallar sem vettvangur skapandi listamanna í hringiðu umbreytinga við upphaf nýrrar þúsaldar. Þema sýningarinnar er þannig hinn skapandi og umbreytandi kraftur sem býr í vinnu listamanna og hún endurspeglar fjölbreytt viðfangsefni á tímum jafnt tæknilegra sem félagslegra umbreytinga. \nVal listamanna ræðst af samspili þess með hvaða hætti þau bregðast við samtímanum og um leið hvernig sjónarhorn þeirra hefur áhrif á sjónarhorn áhorfenda. Um er að ræða listamenn sem mótað hafa listalífið hér á landi í upphafi nýrrar aldar. Þessi kynslóð er sérstök fyrir þau tímamót sem hún upplifir: Hún fellur á milli X og Y kynslóða\, í árdaga þúsaldarkynslóðarinnar. Listamennirnir muna eftir heiminum án internets og snjallsíma\, upplifa efnahagshrunið\, taka inn MeToo byltinguna\, skynja mörk jarðsögulegs tíma og mannlífstíma og horfast í augu við hamfarahlýnun.

SUMMARY:Iðavöllur: Icelandic Art in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, Reykjavík Art Museum focuses on the microenvironment\, with an aim of displaying the growth of the Icelandic art scene. The whole Hafnarhús becomes the setting for a powerful exhibition of new works by young artists who may be considered to be in the lead for their generation\, and assumptions can also be made about the larger context of Icelandic and international contemporary art. It’s been a while since we checked in with what’s brewing among the fastest growing and most prominent artists and reflects subjects and approaches of the present. \nThe title of the exhibition is Iðavöllur. It is borrowed from Völuspá and occurs twice in the poem. Iðavöllur is the place where the gods meet when the world is constructed and then reassemble at following Ragnarök to build a new world. Hafnarhús takes on the role of such a meeting place\, as a location for creative artists in the maelstrom of change at the start of the new millennium. The theme of the exhibition is the creative and transformative power contained in the work of artists and it reflects diverse subjects at a time of technological and social transformation. \nThe artists are selected based on how they react to the present and how their perspective influences the perspective of the viewer. These artists have shaped the Icelandic art scene at the start of the new century. People of this generation have a unique position because of the junction they stand at: They fall between the X and Y generations\, at the birth of the millennium generation. The artists remember a world without internet and smartphones\, they experienced the economic collapse and the MeToo revolution\, they sense the boundary between geochronological age and the Anthropocene and are faced with a climate catastrophe. They participate in building an art scene which is undergoing a professionalisation with the arrival of art academies\, international galleries and art history publications. They represent a generation who deals with increased speed\, more flow of information\, blurry borders\, fluctuating gender\, changes in communications\, new technology – all while still remembering the way it used to be. In a sense\, they are experiencing the end of the world and contributing to a new beginning. \n\nArtists:\n\n\n\n\n\nAnna Júlía Friðbjörnsdóttir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnna Rún Tryggvadóttir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArna Óttarsdóttir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArnar Ásgeirsson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBjarki Bragason\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDodda Maggý\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nElín Hansdóttir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEva Ísleifs\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGuðmundur Thoroddsen\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHildigunnur Birgisdóttir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPáll Haukur Björnsson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRebecca Erin Moran\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStyrmir Örn Guðmundsson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nÖrn Alexander Ámundason\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurators:\n\nAldís Snorradóttir\nMarkús Þór Andrésson\nÓlöf Kristín Sigurðardóttir

SUMMARY:Erró: Experiment Lounge
DESCRIPTION:In 1963\, Erró (b. 1932) created the set and props for the experimental film Mechanical concerto for madness or the mad mechamorphosis by French director and writer Éric Duvivier. The task was not far from themes within his art practice\, which already deeply explored collage and three-dimensional assemblages of found and ready-made images and objects.buy lexapro Canada https://langleyrx.com/lexapro.html no prescription\n Erró’s interest in technology and science\, his fascination with the mechanical world\, and increased participation in the emerging scene of happenings and experimental film inspired the work. The imaginary\, the surreal\, science fiction\, and the potential of the human body to be something other than organic; machine\, mechanized\, or artificial\, inform ways to read this film and Erró’s contribution to it. \n\n\n\nWe observe two humans seemingly and unknowingly transform into mechanized beings in a colourless world. Everyday\, oversized and misplaced objects shift the scale and focus\, leading us into another place; uncertain land and a far-fetched workshop. In exploring this new world\, the pair becomes part of its assembled pieces and conveyor-belt production line. It is uncertain if this scene is merely fantasy or more akin to our impending reality? In other words\, who are these humans\, skeletal\, patterned\, misshapen bodies and other masked\, mechanized\, assembled\, futuristic figures – and where are they headed? \n\n\n\nCurators: Becky Forsythe\, Ari Alexander Ergis Magnússon\, Masters Students in Curatorial Practice at IUA.

SUMMARY:Ragna Róbertsdóttir
DESCRIPTION:i8 Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of works by Icelandic artist Ragna Róbertsdóttir. \n\n\n\nThis is the artist’s fourth solo show with the gallery\, and comes twenty-five years after her debut exhibition with i8 in 1996. Róbertsdóttir’s presentation spans three iterations: an exhibition at the gallery\, an outdoor installation in front of i8\, as well as an artwork in Hljómskálagarður\, a public park in Reykjavík (pictured above). \n\n\n\nRóbertsdóttir is a vital voice in contemporary art within Iceland\, and her contributions to the history of art span far beyond her native country. Her practice explores identity\, materiality\, time\, as well as natural and architectural histories. Róbertsdóttir is best known for her minimal sculptures and installations\, which often comprise elements inherent to the Icelandic environment\, such as lava rock\, salt\, turf\, and clay. \n\n\n\nAt the gallery\, the exhibition includes works conceptualized from the 1980s to the present. Róbertsdóttir has revisited early works that were either never realized or long-since destroyed\, and presents sculptures that have been unseen for decades. Throughout her show\, the most fundamental elements of the artist’s practice are palpable: a reductive\, precise focus on form and material. \n\n\n\nUpon entering the gallery\, several bales of turf\, tightly wound rolls of grass and soil\, line the wall. This sculpture\, nodding to both stacks of hay and traditional turf houses\, sets the tone for the atmospheric shift in which the landscape merges with the interior space. Across the gallery\, two connected coils of wide manila rope and linen unfurl to reveal rectangular pieces of slate stacked in three piles. The tactile surface of this sculpture is reminiscent of both natural elements and man-made interventions within the austere Icelandic nature. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition also features a new two-part wall installation made from black lava rock that Róbertsdóttir collected from the volcano Hekla. Wall installations are an important part of the artist’s practice\, and Róbertsdóttir experiments with different materials\, working in reaction to the proportions and light within the space. In Iceland\, there is a traditional architectural method of adding ground shells or rocks to the exterior of stone buildings\, which the artist takes as inspiration in her own murals. Róbertsdóttir applies the lava rock by tossing it at an adhesive area on the wall; she then delicately rearranges the small rocks within the composition. While she confines nature neatly within the boundary of a rectangle\, Róbertsdóttir achieves a visual variance that conveys energy and motion\, as if harnessing the vitality of the volcanic process. \n\n\n\nIn front of the gallery’s facade\, Róbertsdóttir has installed three bronze plates in place of stone sidewalk slabs. Her artwork becomes a functioning part of the sidewalk\, integrating into the architecture and infrastructure of the city. As the exhibition continues\, the material will change and tarnish as it is exposed to the elements; both time and transformation are important subjects throughout the artist’s work. Additionally\, at Hljómskálagarður. Róbertsdóttir presents a path made from red lapilli\, pieces of volcanic rock ejected during an explosion\, that the artist collected in Seyðishólar. This intervention disrupts a stretch of well-trodden path in the park\, and\, like the bronze sidewalk plates\, it is continually in flux and invites interaction as by passers-by walk on the material. The bronze sidewalk installation and the red lapilli path will both remain on view to the public until September 2021.

SUMMARY:Róska
DESCRIPTION:Artist and activist Róska was one of a kind. Art smouldered inside her\, and the undercurrent of her art practice was personal\, avant-garde and surreal. Róska\, whose full name was Ragnhildur Óskarsdóttir\, was born in 1940 in Reykjavík. She never balked in her creative process\, and did not hesitate to express herself on absolutely any subject. Communicating through her art\, she contended with new\, avant-garde media in the latter half of the 20th century. Her personal and surreal imagery went hand-in-hand with opposition to abstract art and the bourgeois ideology of the time. For Róska the subject of Woman was always central\, and she reflected her own psyche and that of women in general in many of her works. In the 1960s and 70s she was a woman among men in the male-oriented community of artists\, and she was unshakeably convinced that women were men‘s equals\, and need not conform with the masculine norms of the bourgeois society of the time. Her drawings testify to a delicate narrative style and sincerity; and her campaign posters\, paintings\, photographs\, sculptures\, sketches and performances show that there was so much that mattered to her\, whether political or personal issues. For Róska\, life and art were indissolubly intertwined. \nAn exhibition of works by Róska opens at the LA Art Museum on 5 June 2021. It will include works from her oeuvre that reflect her creative flow\, talent and avant-gardism\, as well as her personal\, provocative and sincere approach to her life and art. The intention is to display Róska‘s diverse and unique visual world and her attributes as an artist\, activist and individual; and to shed light on how important her art was\, and is\, in the context of art history\, and the impact she had\, and still has\, on individuals\, society and the era. \nRóska’s art will be displayed in dialogue with works by contemporary Icelandic artists who reflect Róska‘s unique sensitivity and approach\, and possess the same energy\, enthusiasm\, avant-gardism or sincerity. The common factor of the contemporary artists is that they have in their drawing or approach addressed women‘s psyche in a range of media – media which Róska was unafraid of adopting\, although they were avant-garde in the years after the middle of the last century.buy norvasc generic https://infoblobuy.com/norvasc.html over the counter\n \nCurator: Ástríður Magnúsdóttir \nÁstríður Magnúsdóttir (b. 1972) graduated from the Iceland University of the Arts with a BA in fine art in 2008\, and from the University of Iceland with a BA in art history and art theory in 2013.

SUMMARY:Anna Kolfinna Kuran: Yfirtaka
DESCRIPTION:Yfirtaka er röð gjörninga eftir Önnu Kolfinnu Kuran\, þar sem markmiðið er að fylla ólík rými með kvenorku og líkömum. Kveikju verksins má rekja til vangaveltna um sýnileika kvenna í samfélaginu. Á Íslandi er ekki hægt að fullyrða að konur séu ósýnilegar eða raddlausar. En hvaða konur eru það sem við heyrum í og sjáum? Hverjar eru það sem taka pláss og hafa hljómgrunn? Hugmyndin með Yfirtökunni er að búa til vettvang fyrir konur úr ólíkum samfélagshópum að sameinast í samstöðu og krafti. Verkið kannar mátt mýktarinnar og kyrrðarinnar og orkunnar sem myndast þegar margar konur koma saman. \nFyrir Listasafn Árnesinga hefur Anna Kolfinna skapað þríþætt verk sem byggir á hugmyndafræði Yfirtökunnar: myndbandsverk\, gjörning á opnun sýningarinnar og hljóðverk. Í myndbandinu mynda konurnar samstöðu\, búa til mynstur og máta sig við arkitektúr listasafnsins. Þetta er staðbundið myndbandsverk þar sem flytjendurnir fást við dularfullar og táknrænar athafnir. Á opnunardegi sýningarinnar þann 5. júní 2021\, gera konurnar innrás í listasafnið og fremja gjörning þar sem verða sterkar tilvísanir í athafnir myndbandsins. Þær birtast innan um sýningargesti og leiða hæga og stigmagnandi athöfn sem skapar dulúðlega og rafmagnaða stemmningu. Eftir opnunina endurfæðist hluti verksins. Raddhluti gjörningsins á opnunardeginum verður tekinn upp og settur aftur inn í rýmið\, þar sem hann mun hljóma líkt og bergmál gjörningsins\, og öðlast þannig sjálfstætt líf sem hljóðverk það sem eftir lifir sýningartímabilsins. \nMyndbandsverkið\, gjörningurinn frá opnunardeginum og hljóðverkið eru þríþætt nálgun á sama viðfangsefnið sem rannsakar mörk tíma og rúms í einum rauðum alheimi. \nAnna Kolfinna Kuran (f. 1989) er sjálfstætt starfandi listakona. Hún útskrifaðist með BA- gráðu af samtímadansbraut Listaháskóla Íslands árið 2013 og með meistaragráðu í performance fræðum (e. performance studies) úr New York Háskóla árið 2017. Verk Önnu Kolfinnu taka á sig ólíkar myndir þar sem flæði milli miðla\, greina og aðferða er greinilegt\, megin áherslan liggur þó í því sjónræna og líkamlega. Gegnumgangandi þemu í verkum hennar eru að rannsaka viðfangsefni sem við koma líkama konunnar og samtíma femínisma. Anna Kolfinna er meðal stofnenda fjöllistahópanna Dætur og Kraftverk sem unnið hafa að ýmsum sýningum sem meðal annars fyrir Reykjavík Dance Festival (2013) og Sequences Art Festival (2015). Undanfarin ár hefur Anna Kolfinna einblínt á langtíma verkefni sem ber titilinn Konulandslag þar sem hún rannsakar tengsl milli kyns og rýmis. Verkefnið er marglaga listræn og fræðileg rannsókn þar sem hún skoðar vægi kvenlíkamans og sýnileika kvenna í mismunandi umhverfum. Markmiðið með verkefninu er að varpa ljósi á og gera heim kvenna\, í sinni margslungnu mynd\, sýnilegan í formi lifandi verka á sviði\, gjörninga\, ljósmynda og myndbandsverka. \nMeðal þessara verka eru röð gjörninga undir yfirskriftinni Yfirtaka þar sem markmiðið er að fylla ólík rými með kvenlíkömum og röddum.

SUMMARY:Anna Kolfinna Kuran: Takeover
DESCRIPTION:Takeover is a performance series by Anna Kolfinna Kuran\, which aims to fill different spaces with femme energy and bodies. The work revolves around the artist’s reflections on women’s visibility in our society. In Iceland one cannot claim that women are invisible or without voice. But which women do we see and hear? Who are the women that take up space and get listened to? The idea behind Takeover is to create a platform for women of different backgrounds to unite in solidarity and strength. The work explores the power of stillness and softness and the energy created by many women coming together. \nFor LÁ Art Museum Anna Kolfinna has created a threefold work consisting of a video work\, live performance at the exhibition’s opening and a sound piece. In the video work the women come together in solidarity\, creating patterns in the architecture of the museum. A site specific video work in which the women perform mysterious ceremonies. At the opening of the exhibition on June 5th 2021\, the women will invade the museum with a performance in which they refer to the actions in the video\, as well as using their voice to fill up the space with their energy. They appear amongst the crowd and perform a powerful and escalating ceremony which creates a mystical and electric atmosphere. After the opening a part of the performance is reborn. The women’s voices will be recorded during the performance and put back into the space where it will become a sound piece. The video\, the performance at the opening and sound piece present three independent approaches of the same idea experimenting with time and space in one red universe. \n  \nAnna Kolfinna Kuran (b. 1989)\, is an artist based in Reykjavik\, Iceland. She received her Bachelor’s degree in contemporary dance from Iceland University of the Arts in 2013 and completed her Master’s degree from New York University in Performance Studies in 2017. Anna Kolfinna’s work is cross-disciplinary\, most often manifesting in performance and visual works. Her artistic research is mainly focused on\, but not excluded to\, contemporary feminism and themes regarding the female body and image. \nAnna Kolfinna has worked on various projects such as the long term collaborations Dætur (e. Daughters) and Kraftverk and a personal project titled Woman Landscape in which she explores the connection between space and gender. The latest development within Woman Landscape is the Takeover Series\, which is a social art project bringing together women of all ages and different backgrounds in a powerful performative ceremony.

SUMMARY:Iðustreymi
DESCRIPTION:Gjörningaklúbburinn\, Katrín Elvarsdóttir\, Kristín Gunnlaugsdóttir\, Sara Björnsdóttir\, og Elísabet Jökulsdóttir \nAqua Maria – Gjörningaklúbburinn \nÍ verkinu Aqua Maria er sópransöngkona í rými sem svipar til gufubaðs en eftir því sem á líður verður rýmið óræðara. Á meðan söngnum stendur myndast vatnsdropar á hári hennar og andliti\, þéttast og þyngjast þangað til að þeir streyma niður andlitið. \nVídeóið hverfist um Aqua Maríu sem er táknmynd baráttuandans sem rís upp úr hafinu sem innblástur fyrir þá umbreytingu sem konur eru að upplifa í samtímanum\, undir áhrifum byltingar­ og baráttuanda gegn óréttlæti og ofbeldi\, eins og má sjá um allan heim í herferðum eins og #metoo\, Kvennagöngunni\, Black Lives Matter\, Druslugöngum og Free the Nipple sem eru skipulagðar á netinu. \nAqua Maria tekur einnig á brennandi umhverfismálum og hnattrænni hlýnun. Við eigum aðeins eina jörð og einn líkama\, hvortveggja samanstendur af 70% vatni. Aqua Maria er í okkur öllum og byltingin er í okkur öllum\, nafn hennar\, María\, felur bæði í sér hebreska orðið fyrir byltingu og íslenskt orð fyrir haf. \nAqua Maria vísar í sterka strauma samtímans: frá náttúrunni til femínisma\, frá list til vistfræði. Verkið táknar mannlegt traust á innsæi í ljósi nýrrar tækni og streymi stafræna hafsins. \nMyndlistarkonurnar Eirún Sigurðardóttir og Jóní Jónsdóttir eru starfandi meðlimir Gjörningaklúbbsins sem var stofnaður af þeim ásamt myndlistarkonunni Sigrúnu Hrólfsdóttur árið 1996. Sigrún starfaði með hópnum til ársins 2016 og grafíski hönnuðurinn Dóra Ísleifsdóttir frá 1996-2001. \nEirún og Jóní útskrifuðust báðar frá Myndlista- og handíðaskóla Íslands 1996. Eirún stundaði framhaldsnám við Listaháskólann í Berlín 1996-1998 og útskrifaðist með viðbótardiplómu í hagnýtri jafnréttisfræði frá Háskóla Íslands 2014. Jóní stundaði framhaldsnám við Konunglegu listaakademíuna í Kaupmannahöfn 1997-1999 og útskrifaðist með mastersgráðu í kennslufræðum frá Listaháskóla Íslands 2011. \nHugmyndir Gjörningaklúbbsins tengjast oft félagslegum málefnum með feminískum áherslum í bland við glettni og hressandi einlægni. Gjörningaklúbburinn vinnur í þá miðla sem þjóna hugmyndum hans hverju sinni\, svo sem gjörninga\, ljósmyndir og innsetningar og nýtir sér gjarnan verkfræði ömmunar\, handverk og útsjónarsemi í bland við glæsileika og nútímatækni. \nGjörningaklúbburinn vann með Björk Guðmundsdóttur fyrir Volta plötu hennar 2007 og hefur í gegnum árin unnið að fjölbreyttum verkefnum með listafólki á borð við GusGus\, Ensamble Adapter\, Ragnari Kjartanssyni og Kiyoshi Yamamoto. \nGjörningaklúbburinn á að baki fjölda einka- og samsýninga í söfnum og galleríum um allan heim þar á meðal ARoS listasafnið í Danmörku\, Moma samtímalista-safninu í New York\, Kunsthalle Vienna í Austurríki\, Schirn Kunsthalle og samtíma-listasafninu Hamburger Bahnhof í Þýskalandi\, Amos Anderson listasafninu í Helsinki og Lilith Performance Studio í Svíþjóð. \nGjörningaklúbburinn var einn þriggja listamanna/hópa sem voru valin til þess að útfæra hugmyndir sínar nánar fyrir Feneyjatvíæringinn 2017 og var valinn Listhópur Reykjavíkur 2018 af Menningar- og ferðamálaráði Reykjavíkur. \nGjörningaklúbburinn er kynntur af Pinksummer Contemporary Art \nwww.ilc.is \n— \n  \nMargsaga – Katrín Elvarsdóttir  \nVið erum stödd innandyra og horfum út. Við erum stödd utandyra og horfum inn. Kona í rauðri kápu\, hjólhýsi eftir miðnætti\, gul gluggatjöld – allt eru þetta vísbendingar í brotakenndri frásögn sem vekja upp spurningar frekar en að gefa svör. Í myndaröðinni Margsaga verðum við vitni að óljósum atburðum sem við höfum óvart ratað inní. Eins og óboðnir gestir í sviðsmynd sem neitar að uppljóstra hvort hún sé raunveruleg eða skálduð. Brotin raðast saman og þröngva upp á okkur margræðri atburðarrás. Hvort sem okkur líkar betur eða verr. \nKatrín Elvarsdóttir (f. 1964) lagði stund á nám í myndlist og ljósmyndun í Bandaríkjunum. Ljósmyndaverk hennar einkennast af brotakenndum en jafnframt óræðum frásögnum\, þar sem leikið er með hugmyndina um sameiginlega minningarsköpun. Verkin innihalda oft frásagnir af dularfullum atburðum sem áhorfandinn verður óafvitandi hluti af\, þar sem ákveðnir hlutir eru sýnilegir en öðru er leyft að liggja á milli hluta\, og það sem útaf stendur kallast fram í hugskotsjónum áhorfandans. Þannig gerast verkin innan óræðs tíma og sögusviðs\, uppfull tilvísana og styðjast við kvikmyndalega aðferðarfræði\, mjúkan fókus og snarpa notkun ljóss og skugga. \nÁ sama tíma og Katrín hafnar hefðbundinni heimildanotkun ljósmyndamiðilsins nýtir hún sér rannsóknarmöguleika hans og eðlislæga eiginleika til áleitinnar myndsköpunar og fagurfræðilegrar tjáningar innan samhengis samtímalista. \nVerk hennar hafa verið sýnd víðsvegar hér á landi og erlendis\, má þar meðal annars nefna Listasafn Reykjavíkur og Listasafn Íslands\, Forum Box í Helsinki\, Ljósmyndasafnið í Seoul\, Martin Asbæk gallerí í Kaupmannahöfn\, BERG Contemporary í Reykjavík og Frankfurter Kunstverein í Frankfurt. Hún hefur hlotið verðskuldað lof fyrir verk sín og ýmis verðlaun\, meðal annars hin virtu EIKON verðlaun\, Deutsche Börse tilnefningu og Ridgefield Guild of Artists verðlaunin\, auk þess sem hún er meðstjórnandi Ljósmyndahátíðar Íslands. \n— \nSaumaðar teikningar – Kristín Gunnlaugsdóttir  \nSaumuðu verkin kalla ég saumaðar teikningar þar sem ég styðst við skissur eða hraðteikningar. \nOftast eru þetta konur og ómeðvitaðar línur en stundum krass sem skapast í teiknihreyfingunni. \nÉg teikna þær hratt og án umhugsunar og vildi stækka þær en varðveita um leið kraftinn og léttleikann sem býr í þeim. Saumurinn var niðurstaðan og síðan bætist litur þráðarins við\, það verður eins og að mála með ullinni. \nTextaverkin eru síendurteknar setningar með persónulegri handskrift. Setningarnar liggja í hversdagsleikanum og tengjast myndmáli teikninganna\, en með sífeldri endurtekningu þyngist merking orðanna\, breytist og magnast. \nKristín Gunnlaugsdóttir er fædd í Akureyri 1963. Hún stundaði nám við Myndlista- og Handíðaskóla Íslands frá 1984-87\, lærði íkonagerð í klaustri í Róm á Ítalíu 1987-88 og útskrifaðist frá Accademia di belle Arti í Flórens 1988-94. \nKristín hefur eingöngu starfað við myndlist\, haldið fjölda einkasýninga og tekið þátt í samsýningum\, heima og erlendis. Verk hennar eru í eigu helstu opinberra safna landsins\, ásamt fjölda fyrirtækja og einkaaðila. Kristín hefur einnig verið stundakennari við Listaháskóla Íslands og Myndlistaskólann í Reykjavík frá 2016. Hún hefur fengið ýmsar viðurkenningar fyrir list sína og var veitt fálkaorðan árið 2018 fyrir framlag sitt til myndlistar. \nVerk Kristínar eru fjölþætt í tækni en byggja á klassískri hefð málaralistarinnar. Hún vinnur með teikningu\, málun á pappír og striga\, eggtemperu á tré með blaðgulli og saumuð verk á striga. \nHugmyndaheimur Kristínar beinist að tilvistarspurningum manneskjunnar\, ekki síst frá sjónarhóli konunnar og stöðu hennar í samtímanum. Á fyrstu árum ferilsins höfðu verk Kristínar yfir sér trúarlegan helgimyndablæ þar sem sýndu meðal annars samband manns og náttúru eða móður með barn. Í kringum 2011 breyttust verk hennar með tilkomu stórra saumaðra veggteppa þar sem myndmálið varð beitt og berort gagnvart kynhlutverkum\, kvenlíkamanum og bælingu. \nÞrátt fyrir að taka fyrir tabú og konuna sem kynveru má einnig greina ljóðrænan einfaldleika og húmor í verkum Kristínar\, ekki síst undanfarin ár. \nÍ verkum sínum er hún óhrædd að kanna nýjar slóðir og breyta til innan myndmáls síns\, gjarnan með að tefla saman andstæðum. \nkristing.is \n— \nBetween the lines / Milli línanna.

Verkin bera titilinn Between the lines sem er lína/setning úr einu verkinu og tilvísun í að þó þetta sé mín hugarsmíð þá eru orðin klippt úr samhengi einhvers annars og liggja því milli línanna\, í verkunum sjálfum liggur líka eitthvað milli línanna sem gefið er í skyn en þarf að hugsa um.“ \n„Textinn er oft á tíðum eins og lítil saga\, ljóð eða pæling. Getur verið beittur\, ljóðrænn\, ádeila\, húmor eða súrrealískur. Hann fjallar mikið um listina\, að vera listamaður og manneskja. Stundum er ég að tala um fólk sem ég hef hitt á förnum vegi\, vini og vandamenn þó það sé ekki vitað við lestur verkanna.“ \nSara Björnsdóttir er fædd í Reykjavík 1962. Hún nam við Myndlista- og handíðaskóla Íslands frá 1991-1995 og MA Fine Art frá Chelsea College of Art & Design í London 1996-1997. \nFrá útskrift hefur Sara verið áberandi á íslenskri listasenu og starfað ötullega að myndlist. Hún á að baki fjölda einka- og samsýninga og hefur sýnt á helstu söfnunum á Íslandi. Listasafn Íslands og Listasafn Reykjavíkur eiga verk eftir hana. Árið 2001 hlaut Sara viðurkenningu úr Minningarsjóði Dungals og ári síðar 2002 viðurkenningu úr listasjóði Guðmundu Andrésdóttur. Árið 2010 hlaut hún Alternative Routes verðlaunin fyrir myndband á 700IS Hreindýraland. Á árunum 2000-2015 var hún stundakennari við Myndlistaskólann í Reykjavík og við Listaháskóla Íslands. Sara var stjórnarmeðlimur og gjaldkeri í stjórn Myndhöggvarafélags Reykjavíkur 2010-2011. Einnig hefur hún verið í úthlutunarnefndum Myndlistarsjóðs\, Kynningarmiðstöðvar íslenskar myndlistar og Muggs. Hún var einn af stofnendum Gallerí Kling & Bang í Reykjavík sem er í dag eitt virkasta og framsæknasta galleríið á Íslandi. \nÁrin 2015-2019 bjó Sara í London og stofnaði The Art Society sem er titillinn á verkefni sem voru tvær alþjóðlegar samsýningar með 20 listamönnum báðar haldnar í London.

SUMMARY:Turbulence
DESCRIPTION:The Icelandic Love Corporation\, Katrín Elvarsdóttir\, Kristín Gunnlaugsdóttir\, Sara Björnsdóttir & Elísabet Jökulsdóttir \nAqua Maria 2018 – The Icelandic Love Corporation.  \nAqua Maria features a soprano singing inside a space that resembles a steam bath but as the scene progresses\, the space becomes more ambiguous. During her singing drops of water condense in her hair and face\, becoming heavier until they stream down her face. \nThe video is based on the symbolic figure of Aqua Maria who rises from the ocean to serve as an inspiration for the current transformation women are experiencing in our time\, influenced by the worldwide spirit of revolt and struggle against injustice and violence\, as it is manifested in #metoo\, Women’s March\, Black Lives Matter\, Slut Walks and Free the Nipple campaigns that are organised through the world wide web.  \nThe water in Aqua Maria responds to burning ecological issues and global warming. We only have one earth and one body\, both consisting of 70% water. Aqua Maria is in all of us\, the water in all of us and the revolution in all of us\, her name Maria indicating rebellion in Hebrew and mar\, sea\, in Icelandic. \nAqua Maria relates to the strong undercurrents of our times: from nature to feminism\, from art to ecology. It represents the human trust in intuition in light of new technologies and the stream of the digital ocean.  \nJóní Jónsdóttir and Eirún Sigurðardóttir are the current members of the art collective The Icelandic Love Corporation (ILC) an art group established in 1996 by Jóní\, Eirún and Sigrún Hrólfsdóttir. Sigrún was a member from 1996-2016 and Dóra Ísleifsdóttir was a member from 1996-2001. \nJóní and Eirún graduated from The Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts in 1996. Jóní studied at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts 1997-1999 and graduated with MA.Ed. in Art Education from Iceland Academy of the Arts in 2011. Eirún studied at Berlin University of the Arts 1996-1998 and graduated in 2014 from the University of Iceland with a postgraduate Diploma in Applied Gender Studies. \nThe Icelandic Love Corporation has actively and successfully worked in the field of visual art\, both at home and abroad\, using nearly all possible media—including performance\, video\, photography\, and installation—the ILC confronts the seriousness of the world with works that blend playfulness\, humor and spectacle with refreshing genuineness and subtle social critique that often incorporates ideas of traditional femininity\, with feministic approach. \nILC´s interdisciplinary art led them to collaborate with Björk for her Volta album in 2007 and a wide range of other collaborations e.g. GusGus\, Ensamble Adapter and Ragnar Kjartansson. \nTheir works have been exhibited internationally\, e.g. at ARoS Kunstmuseum Denmark\, Moma Museum of Modern Art New York\, The Schirn Kunsthalle\, Frankfurt Germany\, Kunsthalle Wien Vienna\, Amos Anderson Art Museum Helsinki and Lilith Performance Studio Sweden. \nILC was shortlisted for Icelandic Pavilion for the Venice Biennale 2017 and nominated the Art group of Reykjavík by Reykjavík City’s Department of Culture and Tourism in 2018. \nwww.ilc.is  \n— \nSewn drawings – Kristín Gunnlaugsdóttir \nSewn drawings is what I call the sewn works\, which I base on sketches or quick drawings. \nGenerally they depict women and spontaneous lines\, and sometimes scribbles created in the movement of drawing. \nI draw them fast and without deliberation\, and I wanted to enlarge them while retaining the power and lightness that resides in them. Sewing was the solution\, and then the colour of the yarn is added – it becomes like painting with the wool. \nThe text works are reiterated sentences in personal handwriting. The sentences lie in everyday life\, and relate to the imagery of the drawings; with constant repetition the meaning of the words is changed\, growing weightier and more expansive. \nKristín Gunnlaugsdóttir was born in Akureyri in 1963. She studied 1984-87 at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts (forerunner of the Iceland University of the Arts)\, learned icon-painting in a convent in Rome\, Italy\, 1987-88\, and studied at the Accademia di belle Arti\, Florence\, 1988-94. Kristín has worked exclusively on her art\, held many solo exhibitions and taken part in group shows in Iceland and abroad. Works by Kristín are in Iceland’s leading public art collections\, as well as in corporate and private collections. Kristín has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts and the Reykjavík School of Visual Arts since 2016. Kristín has received various awards for her art\, and in 2018 she was awarded the Icelandic Order of the Falcon for her contribution to visual art. \nKristín’s works are made in range of media\, while building on the classical painting tradition. She works with drawing\, painting on paper and canvas\, egg tempera on wood with gold leaf\, and sewn works on canvas. \nKristín’s conceptual approach is concerned with the existential questions faced by human beings\, not least from the perspective of women and their status in the present time. In the early years of her career\, Kristín’s art had an aura of religious\, iconic art\, depicting for instance the relationship between humanity and nature\, or mother and child. Around 2011 her art changed with the advent of large sewn tapestries\, whose imagery was fierce and forthright vis-à-vis gender roles\, the female body and repression. \nWhile she has addressed taboos and the woman as a sexual being\, a lyrical simplicity and humour are also to be found in Kristín’s work\, not least in recent years. \nIn her works she does not hesitate to explore new territory and to make changes within her imagery\, often in order to juxtapose opposites. \nIn the sewn works displayed here\, Kristín makes use of drawings and sketches\, in which her ideas are permitted to evolve freely. The drawing is then developed in sewing\, and enlarged in order to give its power and lightness free rein. By repeating everyday sentences\, the meaning of the words is changed\, growing weightier and more expansive. \nhttp://kristing.is \n— \nBetween the Lines / Milli línanna. Collage and text works 2011-20 – Sara Björnsdóttir \n“In recent years I have been working on text-collage works. The works have the title Between the Lines\, which is a line or phrase from one of the works and also alludes to the fact that\, while this is my work\, the words have been cut from someone else’s context\, that lies between the lines.” \n“The text is often like a little story\, poem\, or a reflection. It can be acerbic\, lyrical\, satirical\, humorous or surreal. It often addresses art\, and being an artist and a person. Sometimes I’m referring to people I have met along the way – friends and relatives..” \nSara Björnsdóttir was born in Reykjavík in 1962. She studied 1991-95 at the Icelandic College of Art and Crafts and 1996-97 at the Chelsea College of Art & Design in London for her MA in Fine Art. \nSince her graduation Sara has had a high profile on the Icelandic art scene\, and works diligently at her art. She has shown her work in numerous solo and group exhibitions\, including Iceland’s leading art venues. Works by her are in the collections of the National Gallery of Iceland and the Reykjavík Art Museum. In 2001 Sara received an award from the Dungal Memorial Fund\, and in 2002 from the Guðmunda Andrésdóttir Support Fund. In 2010 she won an Alternative Routes prize for a video work presented at the 700IS Reindeerland Festival. From 2000 to 2015 she was a visiting teacher at the Reykjavík School of Visual Arts and the Iceland University of the Arts. Sara was a board member and treasurer of the Association of Reykjavík Sculptors 2010-11. She has also served on allocation committees for the Visual Arts Fund\, the Icelandic Art Centre and the Muggur fund. She was one of the founders of Kling & Bang Gallery\, one of Iceland’s most dynamic galleries today. \nWhen living in London 2015-19\, Sara founded the Art Society – a project consisting of two international exhibitions of the work of 20 artists\, both held in London. In addition to launching the project\, Sara was the organiser and curator of both exhibitions\, and one of the participating artists. \n— \nEquivocal – Katrín Elvarsdóttir \nWe are inside looking out. We are outside looking in. A woman in a red coat\, a mobile home after midnight\, yellow curtains – these are all clues in a fragmented narrative that raises questions rather than provides answers. In the photography series Equivocal we witness enigmatic events that we inadvertently have taken part in. Like uninvited guests in a scenario that refuses to reveal whether it is fact or fiction. The fragments combine in multiple ways and force upon us incomplete story lines of an ambiguous nature. Whether we like it or not. \nKatrín Elvarsdóttir (b. 1964) studied fine arts and photography in the US. Her photographic works tell fragmented narratives of an ambiguous nature\, often playing on the idea of socially collective memory-making. They often serve as a placeholder for enigmatic events that the viewer inadvertently becomes a part of\, a story half-realized\, half-imagined. Her work might best be described as suggestive\, choosing to reside in the realm of an unscripted\, imagined timelessness\, often utilizing cinematic methods\, as well as soft focus and chiaroscuro. \nShe continues to forego the photographic medium’s conventional documentation usage\, rather focusing on the research of the medium itself and its innate possibilities towards contemporary image-making and aesthetical expression. \nHer work has been exhibited worldwide\, in institutions such as The Reykjavík Art Museum and the National Gallery of Iceland\, Forum Box in Helsinki\, The Museum of Photography in Seoul\, Martin Asbæk Gallery\, Copenhagen and Frankfurter Kunstverein in Frankfurt. She has been awarded and nominated for numerous prestigious awards\, such as the EIKON Award\, The Deutsche Börse Photographic Prize and the Ridgefield Guild of Artists Award\, as well as serving as a co-director of the Icelandic Photography Festival. \nkatrinelvarsdottir.com \n— \nElísabet Jökulsdóttir is an author born in Reykjavík on 16 April 1958.

SUMMARY:Róska
DESCRIPTION:Listakonan og aðgerðasinninn Róska var engum lík. Listin kraumaði innra með henni og undiraldan í listsköpun hennar var persónuleg\, framúrstefnuleg og súrrealísk. Hún hét fullu nafni Ragnhildur Óskarsdóttir og var fædd í Reykjavík árið 1940. Róska hikaði hvergi í sköpunarferlinu og var óhrædd við að tjá sig um allt milli himins og jarðar. Hún lét verkin tala og tókst á við nýja og framúrstefnulega miðla á seinni hluta síðustu aldar. Persónulegt og súrrealískt myndmál hennar blandaðist andstöðu gegn abstraktlistinni og borgaralegum hugmyndum þess tíma. Konan var Rósku alla tíð hugleikin sem viðfangsefni og hún endurspeglaði eigin hugarheim og hugarheim kvenna í mörgum af verkum sínum. Hún var kona meðal karla í karllægu samfélagi myndlistar á sjöunda og áttunda áratugnum og hafði óbilandi trú á að konur væri jafnvígar körlum og þyrftu ekki að lúta karllægum lögmálum borgarastéttar þess tíma. Teikningar hennar bera vott um ofurnæman frásagnarstíl og einlægni\, og baráttuplaköt\, málverk\, ljósmyndir\, skúlptúrar\, skissur og gjörningar sýna að hún lét sig allt varða\, hvort er kom að pólitík eða persónulegum málefnum. Fyrir Rósku var lífið og listin samtvinnaður þráður. \nSýning á verkum eftir Rósku verður opnuð í Listasafni Árnesinga þann 5. júní næstkomandi. Þar gefur að líta valin verk frá ferli Rósku sem endurspegla sköpunarflæði\, hæfileika og framúrstefnu Rósku\, sem og persónulega\, ögrandi og einlæga nálgun í lífi og listsköpun. Til stendur að sýna fjölbreyttan og einstakan myndheim Rósku og hvað einkenndi hana sem listamann\, aktívista og manneskju\, og varpa frekari ljósi á hversu mikilvæg listsköpun Rósku var og er í listsögulegu samhengi og hvaða áhrif hún hafði og hefur enn á einstaklinga\, samfélag og samtíma. \nVerk Rósku verða sýnd í samtali við verk eftir íslenska samtímalistamenn sem þykja ríma við einstaka næmni og nálgun Rósku og búa yfir álíka orku og eldmóð\, framúrstefnu eða einlægni. Samtímalistamennirnir eiga það sameiginlegt að hafa í teikningu sinni eða nálgun fengist við hugarheim kvenna í ólíkum miðlum\, miðlum sem Róska var óhrædd við að tileinka sér þó þeir hefðu verið framúrstefnulegir upp úr miðri síðustu öld. \nRóska (1940-1996) \nRagnhildur Óskarsdóttir\, Róska fæddist í Reykjavík árið 1940. Hún stundaði nám í Menntaskólanum í Reykjavík einn vetur en innritaðist í Myndlista- og handíðaskólann árið 1960 þar sem hún var við nám til 1962 og kynntist framúrstefnulegum hugmyndum og listamönnum.

Eftir námið var Róska virk í „avant garde“ myndlistarsenunni\, hún gekk til liðs við SÚM hópinn\, sýndi verk sín víða og tók virkan þátt í baráttu ungra aðgerðasinna í Reykjavík og í Róm. \nÁrið 1973 hóf Róska nám í kvikmyndagerð við Centro Experimentale Dell Arte Cinematografica og snéri sér að gerð kvikmynda og leikstjórn árið 1976 þegar hún lauk námi.

SUMMARY:Rockscramblers
DESCRIPTION:“Out of shadows\, creeping\, crawling…” \n\n\n\nOur summer exhibition for children\, Rockscramblers\, is inspired by the illustrated poetry of poet Mats Söderlund and illustrator Kathrina Skarðsá that was published in the anthology The Length and Breadth of the Nordic Region: Ecocritical currents in Nordic children’s and young people’s literature earlier this year (2021) under the Swedish title Stenskravlare. The antology was produced by the Nordic House in Reykjavík and is a part of the three-year long project LØFTET which is financed by the Nordic Council of Ministry.buy xifaxan online https://www.blendedentalgroup.com/wp-content/languages/new/xifaxan.html no prescription\n This particular anthology is the second in a series of three that will be published and those will all be the result of nordic collaboration between different scholars\, publishers\, writers and illustrators that get the opportunity meet and work together on a yearly summer workshop. \n\n\n\nThe poem Rockscramblers could be interpreted as the story of earth seen from the perspectives of stones and rocks and Skarðsá’s illustrations add a further meaning to the words by ending the story in a bright green and hopeful kind of way. On view are the illustrations and poetry in its original form and those interact with a mysterious recording of Söderlund himself reading his poem. Inspired by Skarðsá’s illustrations we have built a cave where young visitors can have a cozy time and try out our new climbing wall! The popular magnetic wall from our last exhibiton has also gotten an updated look. \n\n\n\nWelcome to the children’s library to experience the fantasy-world of the rockscramblers!

SUMMARY:Nýleg aðföng
DESCRIPTION:Eitt af meginhlutverkum listasafna er að safna myndlist og miðla safneigninni. Því miður er ekkert fjármagn áætlað á fjárhagsáætlun Listasafnsins á Akureyri til kaupa á listaverkum og þannig hefur það verið í meira en áratug. Þetta stendur vonandi til bóta\, enda mikilvægt að safna með reglubundnum hætti listaverkum sem endurspegla listasöguna. \nListasafninu hafa aftur á móti borist margar góðar gjafir á síðustu árum og byggir sýningin Nýleg aðföng á þeim verkum. \nÍ söfnunarstefnunni segir meðal annars: „Söfnunarsvið Listasafnsins á Akureyri er allt landið en jafnframt leggur safnið sérstaka áherslu á söfnun verka sem tengjast Norðurlandi.“ Móttaka gjafa takmarkast af því markmiði að Listasafnið byggi upp heillega og markvissa safneign. Safnstjóri og fulltrúar í Listasafnsráði fjalla um og taka ákvarðanir er varða móttöku gjafa. \nÁkvörðunin byggir á söfnunarstefnu safnsins\, markmiðum þess og stöðu safneignar á hverjum tíma. \nSýningarstjóri: Hlynur Hallsson.

SUMMARY:Recent Acquisitions
DESCRIPTION:One of the main roles of art museums is to collect art and exhibit their collections. Unfortunately no funds were reserved to buy art in the 2021 budget for Akureyri Art Museum. And so it has been for over a decade. \nThis will hopefully change soon so the museum can attend to the important task of collecting contemporary art in a systematic order to represent art history. The Art Museum has however recieved a number of donations in the form of artworks over the past few years and that is what this exhibition relies upon. \nThe procurement policy for Akureyri Art Museum states\, amongst other things\, that Icelandic art should be collected\, but especially art that has ties to North Iceland. The recieving of donations is limited to art that serves the goal of a comprehensive and focused collection. The Museum director and members of the Museum Counsil decide which donations to accept based on the procurement policy and the state of the permanent collection. \nCurator: Hlynur Hallsson.

SUMMARY:Takmarkanir
DESCRIPTION:Samsýning norðlenskra myndlistarmanna \nÞetta er í fjórða sinn sem tvíæringur\, sýning á verkum norðlenskra listamanna\, er haldinn í Listasafninu á Akureyri. Að þessu sinni var unnið út frá þemanu takmarkanir\, sem er augljóslega bein tilvísun í ástandið í heiminum þessi misserin. Listasafnið auglýsti eftir umsóknum um þátttöku í sýningunni og dómnefnd valdi verk eftir 17 ólíka listamenn af þeim 44 sem sóttu um. \nDómnefndina skipuðu Haraldur Ingi Haraldsson\, myndlistarmaður og verkefnastjóri Listasafnsins\, Hlynur Hallsson\, safnstjóri\, og Vigdís Rún Jónsdóttir\, listfræðingur. Titillinn Takmarkanir er misjafnlega augljós í verkunum en sum þeirra voru unnin sérstaklega fyrir sýninguna. Listræn túlkun á hugtakinu takmarkanir getur svo auðvitað verið afar fjölbreytt. \nGefin er út sýningarskrá og er áhugavert að bera saman sýningarskrár fyrri sýninga til að sjá hvaða þróun er í verkum norðlenskra listamanna og hvort einhver rauður þráður leynist þar. Markmiðið er vissulega að sýna þá fjölbreytni í efnistökum\, aðferðum og hugmyndum sem listamenn af svæðinu eru að fást við hverju sinni. \nJón B. K. Ransu\, myndlistarmaður og fræðirithöfundur\, skrifar í inngangi í sýningarskránni: „Sýningin ber titilinn Takmarkanir og fer fram þegar heimsfaraldur hefur geisað í á annað ár. Á þeim tíma hefur hugtakið „takmörkun“ öðlast áþreifanlega merkingu þar sem fjöldatakmarkanir\, nándartakmarkanir og samkomutakmarkanir hafa haft mótandi áhrif á daglegt líf manna. Yfirskrift sýningarinnar vísar þannig til ástands sem hefur skapast vegna heimsfaraldursins en hún leikur líka með hugtakið vegna þess að þemasýningar eru í eðli sínu takmarkaðar. Við getum til að mynda sagt að val listaverka úr umsóknum listamanna byggi á ákveðinni takmörkun og að listamenn merktir svæði eða landshluta sé takmörkun í sjálfu sér.“ \nSýningunni Takmarkanir er ætlað að gefa innsýn í þá fjölbreyttu flóru myndlistar sem tengist Norðurlandi og vekja umræður um stöðu norðlenskra listamanna og myndlistar almennt. Tvíæringurinn getur\, ef vel tekst til\, orðið grunnur rannsókna og sköpunar á sviði myndlistar og um leið hvatning og tækifæri. \nSýningin er ein af sumarsýningum safnsins því eftirspurn er meðal ferðamanna\, innlendra og erlendra\, eftir myndlist af svæðinu. Safnaráð styrkir sýninguna sérstaklega. \nListamenn: \nAðalheiður S.

SUMMARY:Limitations
DESCRIPTION:Group exhibition works by North Icelandic artists. \nThis is the fourth biennale\, an exhibition of works by artists fr om North Iceland\, held at Akureyri Art Museum. This time with special theme: Limitations – obviously referring to the state of the world these days. Participants apply to a call from Akureyri Art Museum and a special jury selects the works that will be exhibited. Those are works from 17 different \nartists\, of the 44 that applied. Jury members were Haraldur Ingi Haraldsson artist and project manager at the Akureyri Art Museum\, Hlynur Hallsson Museum director and Vigdís Rún Jónsdóttir art historian. How well one can connect the works to the exhibition title varies a lot\, with some created especially for the exhibition while others are older. Artistic\ninterpretation of the concept can of course also be very diverse. \nA catalogue is published and it will be interesting to compare it to older catalogues to follow the trends and developments in art from North Iceland. The aim is surely to present different approaches and ideas from artists in the area. Jón B. K. Ransu\, visual artist and scholarly writer\, writes in his introduction in the catalogue: “The title of the exhibition is Limitations and it is held in a time when a pandemic has raged for well over a year. During this time the concept of limitations has obtained a tangible meaning since most things are restricted; number of people meeting\, how close one is to the next person\, and number of people gathering – all having strong influence on our lives.\nThe title of the exhibition\, Limitations\, refers to the state created by the pandemic\, but also plays with the idea\, since theme exhibitions are always limited in their nature. We can\, for instance\, say that the selection of artworks f or the exhibition is based on certain limitations and that participation open only to artists from a particular area is a limitation in itself.” \nThe exhibition gives an insight into the diverse flora of visual art that is connected to North Iceland and in general. This biennale has potential for being a foundation for research and creations within the frame of visual arts as well as a motivation and opportunity. This is one of the summer exhibitions at Akureyri Art Museum since guests at the museum\, both local and from abroad\, want to see local art. The exhibition received a grant from the Icelandic Museum Fund. \nArtists:\nAðalheiður S.

SUMMARY:Katrín Sigurðardóttir: Til staðar
DESCRIPTION:Til STAÐAR er ein af þremur innsetningum/sýningum sem Katrín hefur unnið í jafnmörgum landsfjórðungum hér á landi árið 2020-21: Við Hoffell undir Vatnajökli\, á Skarðsströnd við Breiðafjörð og í Svalbarðshreppi í Norður-Þingeyjarsýslu.  \nHugmyndin að baki verkinu tengist samspili hráefnis á ákveðnum stað\, mannlegu inngripi og ferlum náttúrunnar. Verkið er sumarsýning ársins 2021 í Sýningarrými Nýpur á Skarðsströnd. \nTIL STAÐAR er innsetning í náttúrulegt umhverfi. Á sýningunni eru þrjú ljósmyndaverk ásamt heimildum um gerð verkanna\, myndband og ljósmyndir á borðum.  \nUndanfarin ár hefur Katrín unnið með jörðina og frumferla náttúrunnar í verkum sínum. Þessir ferlar\, sem eru hefðbundin viðfangsefni fornleifafræði og jarðfræði\, bera fortíðinni og minni efnisins vitni\, sýna brot af sögu jarðar og mannkyns. Katrín notast við aðferðafræði námuvinnslu þar sem hún beinlínis nemur efni úr jörð og nýtir framleiðsluferla og flutningsaðferðir sambærileg við aðferðir sem tengdar hafa verið við iðnvæðingu og nýlendustefnu.  \nÍ verkinu TIL STAÐAR  skilur á milli að Katrín skilar efninu aftur til upprunastaðar. Katrín hefur gefið efninu form byggingareininga/bygginga um stund og varðveitt augnablikið í ljósmyndunum. Síðan raðar hún einingunum að nýju á þann stað þar sem hún gróf efnið upp og við tekur náttúruleg þróun; jörð snýr aftur til jarðar.  \nÍ verki Katrínar má lesa marglaga frásögn um örlög manneskjunnar.  Stef sem á öllum tímum hafa verið viðfangsefni lista og menningar. Forgengileiki tilverunnar og getan – eða vanmátturinn – til að horfast í augu við hann. En í verkinu birtist jafnframt áhugaverðar vísanir – og spurningar – um efni listaverka\, gildi listrænnar ástundunar\, markaðsásælni samtímans\, virði listaverka\, kostun og fjármagn. Undir hvaða kringumstæðum þrífast listir og menning? Hvað þarf til? Ratar listin til sinna eða er hún á tuttugustu og fyrstu öld með öllu undirorpin fjármagni stórfyrirtækja? \nVið látum gestinum eftir að finna sínar tengingar við verk Katrínar\, vissulega opnar það hugann fyrir margvíslegum hugrenningum. \n  \nKatrín Sigurðardóttir hefur á 30 ára ferli sínum sýnt skúlptúra\, teikningar\, ljósmyndaverk og stórar innsetningar sem leitast við að hafa áhrif á/umbreyta reynslu og upplifun áhorfandans. Katrín hefur átt velgengni að fagna innan listheimsins og verk hennar hafa verið sýnd hér heima og víða erlendis.  \nHún hefur m.a. verið fulltrúi Íslands á Feneyjatvíæringnum\, á Sao Paulo Tvíæringnum í Brasilíu\, Momentum í Noregi og Rabat tvíæringnum í Marokkó. Einkasýning hennar í Metropolitan safninu í New York borg árið 2010 vakti mikla athygli. Verk hennar eru í eigu Listasafns Íslands og Listasafns Reykjavíkur en einnig  stórra alþjóðlegra safna s.s. Metropolitan Museum í New York. \nSýning hennar í Sýningarrýminu að Nýp mun standa frá 22 maí og fram í október 2021. Vinsamlega hafið samband og bókið heimsókn: nyp@nyp.is

SUMMARY:Katrín Sigurðardóttir: Til staðar
DESCRIPTION:Nýp Project Space presents Katrín Sigurðardóttir´s work\nTIL STAÐAR \nTIL STAÐAR is one of three installations/exhibitions by Katrín Sigurðardóttir in three separate regions of Iceland: Hoffell at Vatnajökull\, Skarðströnd in Breiðafjörður and Svalbarðshreppur in Norður-Þingeyjarsýsla. \nThe artwork TIL STAÐAR is an installation in the the natural environment. The exhibition consists of three photographic works\, and an archive documenting the making of the works. The underlying theme of the work is the interplay between local resources\, human intervention and the processes of nature itself. The title TIL STAÐAR literally means “Towards a Place”\, but can also mean “present”\, “in-place”\, and even “a dedication to a place”. The work comprises the 2021 summer exhibition of the Nýp Project Space. \nIn recent years Katrín has in her art worked with the elemental processes of nature and the earth. These processes\, traditionally the subjects of archaeology and geology\, bear witness to the past\, demonstrate the memory in the material itself\, and reveal fragments of the history of the earth and humankind. Katrín uses techniques borrowed from industrial mining; she extracts materials from the earth\, using processes and transportation methods that have been linked to industrialisation and colonialism. \nHowever\, in TIL STAÐAR\, Katrín’s methods differ in that she returns the materials back to their point of origin. For a brief moment in time\, she gives her material the form of a building\, made of unfired bricks/paving stones\, and preserves this in photographs. Then\, she arranges the bricks back at the place from which they were taken\, and the processes of nature take over from there; earth returns to earth. \nIn Katrín’s work\, there is a multilayered narrative to be read about the lot of humanity – themes that art throughout history has engaged with: the transience of human existence\, and the ability – or inability – to face that transience. The work also poses some interesting questions concerning today’s fixation on the market\, the perceived worth of art\, the art material and arts financing and capital. Under what conditions does art and culture flourish? Does art always find its way to its audience\, or is it at all times dependent on corporate patronage? \nDuring her 30-year career\, Katrín Sigurðardóttir has exhibited sculptures\, drawings\, photographic art and large-scale installations that attempt to affect and transform the subjective experiences of the viewer. Katrín’s work has been exhibited widely\, both in Iceland and abroad. She represented Iceland at the Venice Biennale\, the São Paulo Biennale in Brazil\, Momentum in Norway\, and the Rabat Biennale in Morocco. \nHer 2010 solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York attracted widespread attention. The National Gallery of Iceland and the Reykjavík Art Museum own works by Katrín\, as do as international museums such as the aforementioned Metropolitan Museum in New York. \nShe represented Iceland at the Venice Biennale\, the São Paulo Biennale in Brazil\, Momentum in Norway\, and the Rabat Biennale in Morocco.

SUMMARY:Kristín Þorkelsdóttir
DESCRIPTION:Fáir hér á landi hafa skilað af sér jafn mörgum listaverkum\, sem tekið er sem sjálfgefnum\, og hönnuðurinn Kristín Þorkelsdóttir. Verk hennar hafa verið hvað mest áberandi við hinar hversdagslegustu aðstæður\, svo sem inni í ísskápum landsmanna\, ofan í töskum þeirra eða við hefðbundið borðhald. \nÞó má einnig finna verk Kristínar á jafn óaðgengilegum stöðum og í læstum öryggishirslum Seðlabanka Íslands. Enda er Kristín bæði hönnuður fjölmargra umbúða um matvæli og höfundur núgildandi peningaseðlaraðar\, sem hún vann að ásamt hönnuðinum Stephen Fairbairn. \nÞá hefur Kristín hannað urmul auglýsinga\, bækur og ýmis þjóðþekkt merki\, sem mörg hafa verið í notkun í yfir fimm áratugi. \nAð baki hvers þjóðþekkts verks Kristínar liggja ógrynni af skissum\, tilraunum og pælingum\, sem ekki hefur verið safnað saman til sýningar fyrr en nú. \nÁ sýningunni má því sjá kunnuleg og áður óséð verk\, sem samanlagt umbreyttu smátt og smátt ungri myndlistarkonu í einn helsta brautryðjanda landsins á sviði grafískrar hönnunar. Sýningin opnar 20. maí kl. 12 í Hönnunarsafni Íslands.

SUMMARY:Kristín Þorkelsdóttir
DESCRIPTION:Few designers in Iceland have created as many works that are present in Icelanders’ daily life as Kristín Þorkelsdóttir. They can be seen in the most mundane of places—in refrigerators\, inside bags or at the dinner table—or in locations as inaccessible as the Central Bank’s vaults. Kristín is the designer behind the packaging of many popular foods\, as well as the series of banknotes currently in use in Iceland\, which she created together with the designer Stephen Fairbairn. Kristín has also designed countless advertisements\, books\, and nationally known logos\, many of which have been in use for over five decades. \nKristín was born in the east of Reykjavík in 1936. As a child and teenager\, she aimed to become an artist. She started working independently as a graphic designer\, however\, immediately after graduating from the Icelandic School of Arts and Crafts in 1956. She and her husband\, Hörður Rafn Daníelsson\, had met as teenagers and had children early.buy priligy online https://blackmenheal.org/wp-content/languages/new/noprescription/priligy-no-prescription.html no prescription\n Kristín doubted that an artistic career would allow her to make a living. In design\, she found both a way to earn a living and a creative outlet. She eventually went on to establish one of the largest advertising agencies in the country\, AUK hf. (1967–1994). \nBehind each of Kristín’s nationally known works are a myriad of sketches\, experiments and reflections\, which have not been shown publicly until now. This exhibition therefore presents both familiar and previously unseen works\, which together gradually turned a young artist into one of the pioneers of Icelandic graphic design.
