SUMMARY:Tracing Fragments
DESCRIPTION:Through acts of stitching\, sculpting\, weaving\, fragmenting\, painting\, and recording\, Kathy Clark\, Abdullah Qureshi\, Sasha Huber\, Frida Orupabo\, Hugo Llanes\, and Inuuteq Storch reclaim historical methods of handicraft\, documentation\, representation\, and archiving. Their works digest certain generational histories with a delicate yet deliberate touch\, marked by a tender sentimentality that critically unpacks stories of colonization\, slavery\, racism\, suppression and dispossession\, religious persecution and queerness. The physical-ness of their materials (fabric\, the camera\, a touch of the hands\, the body) mark the works with a cathartic embrace. Each artist examines how we process our personal histories\, our genealogy\, our nationhood\, our sexuality\, and our heritage. \nThe artists of Tracing Fragments examine the complicated histories behind colonial and racial violence\, repossessing terms like power and victimhood. Realizing the brown\, indigenous\, and queer body on their own terms\, each artist imagines what forms this body and history can take. In their distinct practices\, the artists of Tracing Fragments appropriate a certain colonial visual memory as a way to reassemble potential histories and rewrite narratives of oppression and dispossession. \nArtists: Abdullah Qureshi\, Frida Orupabo\, Hugo Llanes\, Inuuteq Storch\, Kathy Clark and Sasha Huber. \nCurator: Daría Sól Andrews

SUMMARY:Katrín Elvarsdóttir: Songbirds
DESCRIPTION:In Cuba\, one will most likely be quick to encounter a lonely caged songbird – a tradition of owning songbirds is longstanding in Cuba and a part of their cultural heritage. As Katrín Elvarsdóttir experienced in her travels to Cuba some years ago\, most homes she encountered had one\, if not many\, adorned in intricate cages within sparse and barren homes. Perhaps the Cubans feel a certain affinity with the songbird\, their own movements restricted and controlled.

She has had many solo exhibitions\, both in Iceland and abroad\, including The Search for Truth at BERG Contemporary in 2018\, Double Happiness at Gerðarsafn in 2016\, Vanished Summer at Deborah Berke\, New York\, in 2014 and Neverland at the Reykjavík Art Museum in 2010. Katrín’s works have also been featured in many group exhibitions\, including Silent Spring at Hafnarborg in 2020. Four books have previously been published featuring Katrín’s photographs and Songbirds\, which will be published alongside this exhibition\, will be her fifth. Katrín has been nominated for various awards\, like the EIKON Award in 2017\, Deutsche Börse Photographic Prize in 2009 and the Honorary Award of the Icelandic Visual Art Copyright Association. \nThe curator of the exhibition is Daría Sól Andrews.
