SUMMARY:Lukas Bury: They have no pictures on the walls
DESCRIPTION:“They have no pictures on the walls” is an exhibition by Lukas Bury with a contribution by Weronika Balcerak\, opening on the 11th of December kl 2 – 6 at RÝMD. It is the outcome of the Gerðuberg Calling Residency hosted by Borgarbokasafnið\, Gerðuberg.  \nThey have no pictures on the walls is a series of paintings depicting homes of Polish immigrants living in Iceland. The artworks reflect directly on the exhibition’s title and raise multiple questions: Where is one’s home when suspended between two places? What does an empty wall mean? What motivates the decision of migration? \n“They have no pictures on the walls” is an uncommon but still insightful observation about the Polish community that the artist heard throughout casual conversations with Icelanders. \nCurated by Claire Paugam \nA publication conducted by Weronika Balcerak will be published in 2022.  \nThe project thankfully received financial and logistical support from Rannís\, Myndlistarsjóður\, Myndstef and Borgarbókasafnið. \n  \nLukas Bury is a visual artist based in Reykjavik\, with a Polish and German background\, interested in the narrative power of images. \nLukas studied in the MA program at the Listaháskóli Íslands\, the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Braunschweig and the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan. \nBury exhibited in numerous group shows i. a.\, Tilvera – Being (2018)\, at Verksmiðjan in Hjalteyri\, Common Ground at the SIM Exhibition Hall in Korpulfsstaðir (2020)\, Reykjavik\, Forðabúr – Supply (2020) at Nýlistasafnið in Reykjavik (curated by Hanna Styrmisdóttir)\, Extraterritorial (2021) at the Mini Market\, Reykjavik (with Weronika Balcerak\, Flaviu Cacoveanu\, and Vitalii Shupliak.
