SUMMARY:Solander 250: A Letter from Iceland and Paradise Lost - Daniel Solander’s Legacy
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Solander 250: A Letter from Iceland is held in remembrance of one of the first foreign scientific expeditions to Iceland\, in 1772\, i.e.\, 250 years ago. On this journey was one of Carl von Linné‘s apostles\, the Swedish natural scientist Daniel Solander. Among the things Solander and his fellow travellers recorded in Iceland were nature\, culture\, traditions\, and clothing. Ten Icelandic graphic artists will interpret these events from 1772 and how the nation and the country have changed since then. \nSimultaneously the exhibition Paradise Lost – Daniel Solander’s Legacy. will be opened. Solander was the main botanist on the HMS Endeavor on the first European expedition to Australia. The exhibition has already been set up in New Zealand\, Australia\, and Sweden. The two exhibitions thus form a unique dialogue between the Arctic and the Pacific through Daniel Solander’s travels. The two exhibitions are the collaborative project of the Swedish embassy in Iceland and the Icelandic Printmakers Association. \nPARTICIPANTS \nSOLANDER 250: BRÉF FRÁ ÍSLANDI: Anna Líndal\, Aðalheiður Valgeirsdóttir\, Daði Guðbjörnsson\, Gíslína Dögg Bjarkadóttir\, Guðmundur Ármann Sigurjónsson\, Iréne Jensen\, Laura Valentino\, Soffía Sæmundsdóttir\, Valgerður Björnsdóttir and Viktor Hannesson. \nPARADISE LOST – Daniel Solander’s Legacy: Sharnae Beardsley Dagmar Dyck\, Tabatha Forbes\, John McLean\, Alexis Neal\, Jo Ogier\, Jenna Packer\, John Pusateri\, Lynn Taylor og Michel Tuffery.

SUMMARY:Solander 250: Letters From Iceland
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Solander 250: Letters from Iceland is held in remembrance of one of the first foreign scientific expedition to Iceland in 1772\, i.e. 250 years ago. On this journey was one of Carl Linnaeus‘s apostles\, the Swedish natural scientist Daniel Solander. Solander and his fellow travellers landed in Hafnarfjörður and travelled from there to Bessastaðir\, Þingvellir\, Geysir\, Skálholt and climbed to the top of mount Hekla before they returned home. Among the things they recorded in Iceland were nature\, culture\, traditions and clothing. Ten Icelandic graphic-artists from the Icelandic Printmakers Association will interpret these events from 1772 and how the nation and the country have changed since then. \nSimultaneously the exhibition Paradise Lost will be opened. Solander was the main botanist on the HMS Endeavor on the first European expedition to Australia. The exhibition has already been set up in New Zealand\, Australia and Sweden. The two exhibitions thus form a unique dialogue between the Arctic and the Pacific through Daniel Solander’s travels. \nParticipants: Anna Líndal\, Aðalheiður Valgeirsdóttir\, Daði Guðbjörnsson\, Gíslína Dögg Bjarkadóttir\, Guðmundur Ármann Sigurjónsson\, Iréne Jensen\, Laura Valentino\, Soffía Sæmundsdóttir\, Valgerður Björnsdóttir\, Viktor Hannesson\, John Pusateri\, Alexis Neal\, Dagmar Dyck\, John McLean\, Tabatha Forbes\, Michel Tuffery\, Sharnae Beardsley\, Jo Ogier\, Lynn Taylor\, Jenna Packer.

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.
