SUMMARY:Sums & Differences
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Sums & Differences brings together works by Gary Hill\, Steina\, and Woody Vašulka. It aims to present the commonalities of their earliest explorations and the subsequent divergence of their artistic practices\, their conceptual\, performative\, and contemplative interpretations of the physical and the immaterial\, along three unique trajectories reflecting their distinct sensibilities and unique syntaxes. \nThis collaborative project offers a new\, albeit reductive\, path through the artists’ extensive practice. In the exhibition the mutual exploratory relationship between image and sound is highlighted. The spectrum of work presented at the exhibition\, spanning several decades\, is a range of pieces from early exploratory works with electronic processing tools documenting real-time machine interactions\, their performance and use as an augmentation of the senses\, through works reflecting the development of each of their vocabularies and how the artists utilize\, examine\, or break with the algorithm or code in a unique way through their experiential research. \nGary Hill will create a new piece specifically for the exhibition project. Steina’s most recent installation Pergament will be shown and several rarely seen film works by Woody Vašulka will be featured in this new unexpected constellation. \nCurators: Kristín Scheving\, Halldór Björn Runólfsson & Jennifer Helia DeFelice.

SUMMARY:Eternal Recurrence
DESCRIPTION:In this extensive exhibition\, the works of Jóhannes S. Kjarval (1885-1972) create a thread which connects different periods in time. His art is displayed along with the works of artists who have been prominent on the Icelandic art scene in recent years. \nShortly after Kjarval’s death\, art historian Björn Th. Björnsson (1922-2007) wrote an article where he discusses Kjarval’s contribution to Icelandic art history and says that his work is “never bound to one particular time\, but always contains renascent memories.” This shows the great respect which Icelanders have had for Kjarval’s art\, but also the fact that at any given time\, the viewers bring their own experience and attitude to the viewing. Kjarval’s influence is unquestionable\, and in the exhibition\, the spotlight is on his influence on Icelandic artists. This can manifest in many different ways; be obvious and decisive or appear in a more ambiguous way and without intent. \nKjarval’s most common and beloved subject was Icelandic nature and landscape\, but he also painted many portraits and fantasy images where creatures and figures emerge\, and various nature phenomena are personified. The artworks on display here are created in diverse media\, expressing different approaches to these subjects. \nKjarval plays a large role in the history of Icelandic art and culture\, and he has been a role model and inspiration for generations of artists. His persona and life’s work surrounds us\, for good reason. Kjarval’s work is preserved and examined at Reykjavík Art Museum – Kjarvalsstaðir. Selected pieces are always on display and diverse exhibitions show his career in a wide context\, often with works from the museum collection or with special exhibitions that focus on particular aspects of his creative process. This exhibition places Kjarval’s work in a dialogue with the works of younger\, contemporary artists. Thus\, the exhibition invites us to become better acquainted with one of the greatest Icelandic artists\, but also the works of prominent contemporary artists who have made their mark on the Icelandic and international art scene. \nWe experience a break in the visual field in Ólafur Elíasson’s work. For the first time in Iceland\, a series of paintings which Ragnar Kjartansson painted in Eldhraun – inspired by a Kjarval painting in the artists possession – is on display. The video installation Lava&Moss by Steina is one of the more comprehensive works in the exhibition\, and there are new paintings by Eggert Pétursson. Among other artists who take part in this exhibition are Guðrún Einarsdóttir\, Hrafnkell Sigurðsson\, Kristján Guðmundsson\, Ragna Róbertsdóttir and Sigurður Guðjónsson. \n\nArtists:\n\n\n\n\n\nJóhannes S.

SUMMARY:Hello Universe
DESCRIPTION:The far-distant spaces of the boundless universe have had a hold on the human mind from primeval times\, and over the centuries artists have grappled with notions about space\, and expressed and mediated them in diverse ways.buy propecia online herbalshifa.co.uk/wp-content/themes/twentytwentytwo/inc/patterns/en/propecia.html no prescription\n The exhibition Hello Universe explores the fantastical world of outer space through the lens of works of art in the collection of the National Gallery of Iceland. \nThe avant-garde art of Finnur Jónsson – the first Icelandic artist to address outer space in his works\, in the first half of the 20th century – presents the artist’s unfettered interpretation of the marvels of the celestial bodies\, which are the theme of this exhibition.buy cialis super active online herbalshifa.co.uk/wp-content/themes/twentytwentytwo/inc/patterns/en/cialis-super-active.html no prescription\n \nThe secrets of the Milky Way\, revealed by aged astrologers with predictions about weather and human destiny\, inspire works by Hildigunnur Birgisdóttir and Svavar Guðnason. Halldór Ásgeirsson’s Aurora Borealis Bar shimmers with colourful light; and Steina Vasulka’s installation Of the North  transports the observer with her into an intense experience. \nIn the art of Ásgrímur Jónsson and Guðmundur Thorsteinsson (Muggur)\, from the first half of the 20th century\, we see how heavenly bodies play a role in folklore and tales\, as moonlight reveals mystical beings to human sight\, and the rays of the rising sun turn night-trolls to stone. The exhibition also includes many pieces from the 1960s and 70s\, when rapid advances in space technology took humans beyond the bounds of the Earth’s atmosphere for the first time. \nSpace and art share the common qualities of being interesting and mutable: they are in constant motion\, and new discoveries are always being made when one looks at art. Tumi\, the protagonist of artist Ásgerður Búadóttir’s book The Red Hat and the Raven\, will guide the youngest visitors around the exhibition in an accessible way\, to explore the scientific perspective and learn something new! \nCurators: Guðrún Jóna Halldórsdóttir and Ragnheiður Vignisdóttir \nScience consultant: Sævar Helgi Bragason

SUMMARY:Steina Vasulka: Of The North
DESCRIPTION:Steina’s gigantic video installation Of the North (2001) is an arresting and captivating work that touches all who see it. In the 1960s the possibility of recording sound and video in real time opened up new dimensions in the world of visual arts. Steina Vasulka and her husband Woody got to know avant-garde artists working in the new media when they were living in New York\, where they ran The Kitchen for a time – a venue for audio and video artists that opened in 1971. That was a time of rapid technological advances in electronic culture\, no less than in space science. Steina (Steinunn Bjarnadóttir Briem) and Woody Vasulka were pioneers who collaborated on a range of research regarding video art and the harnessing of electronic (and later digital) pulses. The equipment itself was also used in a dialogue whose aim was to create interesting works of art without compromising standards.\nbuy lasix generic https://rxbuywithoutprescriptionrxonline.com/lasix.html over the counter \nTheir colloquy with technology became most interesting and rewarding\, benefiting from Steina’s background in music and Woody’s technical expertise. “Motion and time are key aspects of my art\,” stated Steina. \nOf the North (2001) is created from Steina’s archive of video recordings\, mostly of Icelandic nature – either the surface of the earth\, or microscopic views: microbes\, as well as crashing waves and melting ice\, landslips and an array of natural phenomena relating to geological formation and destruction of our planet. The work also reaches out into space\, with spherical objects rotating around an imaginary axis in a hypnotic rhythm\, with all the concomitant sounds. The beat and energy evoke imagery that may lead the observer’s thoughts in many directions – whether to magnificent beauty\, or more down-to-earth musing on the vulnerability of nature and the impermanence of the earth.
