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. Her 2010 solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York attracted widespread attention. \nKatrín’s exhibition will be in Nýp Project Space from May 22 into fall 2021.

SUMMARY:Brák Jónsdóttir: Sé (að Nýp)
DESCRIPTION:“Oh steady now\nEverything in its place\nSteady now”\n– Jason Molina (Magnolia Electric Co. – Steady Now) \nThere is a place for the inside and there is a place for the outside\, Brák Jónsdóttir has made a place for the parts in between\, a filter to blur these borders. In the exhibition See\, there are two wooden structures placed precariously in the windows of the gallery\, intuitively yet carefully constructed\, shelf by shelf. \nBrák has embraced the history and previous function of the wooden material\, with its blemishes and sun bleached spots. What was perhaps once a bookshelf or cupboard is now an open scaffolding displaying glass panes\, jars and ornaments\, filled with unspecific specimens of the land around Nyp. Within these jars and containers is where the outside is contemplated\, she has collected stones\, seaweed\, leaves\, rotten wood and other items from around the exhibition site\, just as she collected the wood and glass to house them. These objects are brought inside and they play with our focus of the outside\, a filter or a threshold to pinpoint the vague idea of ones surroundings. \nThis installation contemplates the very human act of displaying objects of intrigue and beauty\, referencing the history of cabinets of curiosity and their amalgamation of science and art. Whilst these cabinets suggest hiddenness and sacredness\, Brák’s open and fragile structure allows for ethereal and abstract notions to be displayed. There are shadows and lines cast by the stained glass. There is water with its unknown origin\, evaporating and blending with plants and remnants of wood and stone. There is the colour of the glass that changes with the daylight. You can look at what is within these jars\, or just as easily peak through to where they once existed\, in sight but out of reach. She has taken moments of intrigue and inquiry\, experimenting with time and space trapped in glass and barely preserved\, left to deteriorate\, change\, sprout and grow. \nWhen arriving somewhere new\, you gather your surroundings\, collect your thoughts\, and in such an affecting landscape there is plenty to gather. Brák has gathered the immaterial feeling of arriving somewhere beautiful.

SUMMARY:Brák Jónsdóttir: Sé (að Nýp)
DESCRIPTION:Ráfa\, horfa\, grípa\, krafsa\, skoða\, pota\, brenna\, grafa\, geyma\, nota. \nMeð verkinu Sé (að Nýp) vefur Brák Jónsdóttir saman þræði veruleika og ímyndunar við rannsókn á umhverfi sínu. \nVísanir verksins í heim vísinda\, safna\, geymslu og myndlistar varpa ljósi á dvöl listamannsins að Nýp í aðdraganda að vinnslu verksins. Gler spilar stórt hlutverk í innsetningunni; horft er inn um það\, út um það\, gegnum það. Áhorfandinn stendur andspænis þeim viðhorfum mannsins að meta náttúruna út frá sjálfum sér\, aðskilja sig frá henni\, fanga hana\, færa hana úr stað og laga að eigin afstöðu. \nBrák Jónsdóttir (f. 1996) er sjálfstætt starfandi myndlistarmaður og fjalla verkefni hennar um samband fólks og náttúru. Hún vinnur gjarnan með staði þar sem menning og náttúra mætast og valdið sem þar birtist. Brák dregst að hinu sjaldgæfa og hversdagslega í senn\, í anda arfleiðar Cabinets of curiosities. Það birtist í áhuga hennar á því sem er einstakt hvað varðar áferð og lit\, því sem er dularfullt og tengist jafnvel hinu yfirnáttúrulega.

SUMMARY:Sindri Leifsson: Sandpiper
DESCRIPTION:The base of a mountain\, where it meets normal ground\, is a weighty site. Furthest away from the peak or summit\, it’s a place both protected and vulnerable. You could say it is an unstable location that cannot escape\, but also highlights the things in its surroundings – for instance when humans come into play. Humans plant trees\, build stone walls\, dig drains around their houses in unison with mountains\, in hopes to maintain stability. Ye\, the ever-lurking possibility that pieces or screes might loosen and will most likely descend or tumble down. Falling from their mountain ridges they land in meadows\, river beds and valleys below. Sometimes\, on their way\, they hop or washout\, leaving dotted trails and marks like bites out of the chocolatey soil below. Where will they land? And what is left missing at the point of break\, descended and gone elsewhere? Some head downhill for the sea\, wade in the ground\, others land in fields below\, stick out like sore thumbs or randomly-placed glacial erratics\, some dive deep\, deep down. In a large field of clay\, spotted by the eyes of those humans. Others push up to the surface\, ground-stained\, and are pests for those tending to those exact fields.\nUp\, up high\, Tumble down\, down. Later plucked up.\n\nSindri’s work focuses in on materials in-reach\, whether sourced\, found or spotted; like tree parts\, wood\, steel and clay-stained stone. In picking them up\, meeting them where they are at and letting them speak as much for themselves as possible\, he collaborates in minimal\, but direct\, sometimes physical\, intentions with the found materials points towards the human. Places can be interpreted in volumes\, multitudes\, and here below the Nýpurhyrna mountain in Breiðafjörður fjord\, Sindri does so in new kinds of erratics\, rock-human hybrids and plucked tree parts. Vulnerability is taken by human-led gesture that only slight changes what is at hand\, and in doing so\, reinforces making\, tasting or trying as ways of relating to the new environment one sometimes finds themselves in.\n\nSýningartexti ⒸBecky Forsythe\n\nSindri Leifsson er fæddur árið 1988 í Reykjavík. Hann lauk MFA-gráðu frá Listaháskólanum í Malmö\, Svíþjóð árið 2013 og BA-námi frá Listaháskóla Íslands árið 2011. Táknmyndir og umbreyting efniviðarins eru endurtekin stef í verkum Sindra en umhverfi og samfélag koma gjarnan við sögu. Efnið fær oftar en ekki að standa sjálfstætt og hrátt í bland við mikið unna og slípaða fleti. Hann hefur verið virkur í sýningarhaldi síðustu ár og má meðal annars nefna einkasýninguna Næmi\, næmi\, næm í Ásmundarsal 2021 og samsýninguna Veit andinn af efninu? í Nýlistasafninu sama ár. Verk Sindra má finna í safneignum Listasafns Íslands\, Listasafns ASÍ og Nýlistasafnsins ásamt einkasöfnum.

He completed an MFA degree from the University of the Arts in Malmö\, Sweden in 2013 and a BA from the Iceland University of the Arts in 2011. Symbols and the transformation of the material wood are repeated steps in Sindri’s work\, where the environment and society also come into play. More often than not\, the materials stand alone and are raw\, mixed with highly processed and polished surfaces. He has been active in exhibitions for the last few years\, among those\, his solo exhibition in Ásmundarsalur Næmi\, næmi\, næm and a group show in the Living Art Museum 2021 Does the soul know about the subject? Sindri’s works can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Iceland\, ASÍ Art Museum and the Living Art Museum\, as well as private collections.
