SUMMARY:Sirra Sigrún Sigurðardóttir & Ásmundur Sveinsson: As If to Demonstrate an Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:Reykjavík Art Museum – Ásmundarsafn newly reopens with Sirra Sigrún Sigurðardóttir’s exhibition of work in dialogue with Ásmundur Sveinsson and the building itself. Sirra’s works are cosmical\, often connected to speculations about our position within the inner workings of nature\, physics and the forces that drive the world. Her works often call upon our position as individuals\, our significance and insignificance\, and where the small is placed in the context of the large. Meaning is transformed from one phenomenon to another; a new perception\, new vision. Many of Ásmundur’s works connect to his curiosity in the movement and law of the celestial bodies. In particular\, this appears in abstract works from the sixties and seventies\, that also relate to the general interest in man’s exploration in space at that time. Among works in the exhibition is the well-known Face of the Sun\, an ode to the sun\, our prerequisite for life on earth. This and other works by Ásmundur harmonise deeply in Sirra’s installation. \nUnlike art\, scientific information and data is presented in a reliable\, unequivocal\, and easily understood manner with trustworthy forms such as diagrams\, thermographs\, mathematical models and pie charts\, to name a few. These methods tell us something concrete and definite about our world and human’s position therein. Sirra has repeatedly used the appearance and the gist of these forms in her art. However\, the presentation casts a new light on the information\, and on the disambiguation of information in general\, and creates a distance of sorts. Scientific measuring devices are elevated\, but at the same time\, also questioned. A spin of the artist’s test tube often reveals a different and wider viewpoint\, with more reference and awareness of how impossible it is to communicate anything unambiguously. And the illogical explanations found in art become less unreliable than they appear. \nThe country’s position on the globe causes exaggerated fluctuations in the movements of the sun; the winter sun appears low in the sky for only a few hours\, but the summer sun rises high for most of the solar day. In her exhibition in Ásmundarsafn\, Sirra uses Ásmundur’s largest sculpture\, the building itself\, and reflected sunrays\, to create a massive drawing in the form of an abstract sundial. Ásmundur made various attempts to interpret the laws of nature through the shapes\, lines and materials of his sculptures. Scientific discoveries inspired him to develop new imagery. Sirra’s new work form a dialogue with selected works by Ásmundur and his world of ideas. They nod to his sincere interest in technology and science\, and to his sensitivity to different materials and various approaches\, reflected in the fearlessness with which he changed his style and methods throughout his career. \nSirra Sigrún Sigurðardóttir graduated with a BA from Iceland University of the Arts in 2001\, and an MA in Art Practice from the School of Visual Arts in New York in 2013. She has held solo exhibitions at Reykjavík Art Museum\, The Living Art Museum Reykjavík\, Hafnarborg Culture Centre\, and Kling & Bang\, among other locations\, and has participated in group exhibitions and projects around the world\, including Chinese European Art Center in Xiamen\, China\, Amos Andersons Konstmuseum in Helsinki\, Finland\, and at Tate Modern and Frieze Projects in London\, England. \nSirra is one of the founders of Kling & Bang in Reykjavík. In 2015 Sirra received the Guðmunda Award\, established by the artist Erró in 1997. Sirra was nominated for the Visual Arts Award in 2020 and has been awarded grants and recognitions from various art funds including Dungal\, Leifur Eiríksson\, Svavar Guðnason\, and Guðmunda Andrésdóttir. In 2015\, Sirra was among 24 international artists selected by Modern Painters magazine as worth following in the years to come. \nÁsmundur Sveinson (1893-1982) was a pioneer in Icelandic art. He studied classical sculpture and worked in traditional subjects at the beginning. His subjects were related to the local environment\, working classes\, legends and sagas. In the sixties he deviated from the figurative methods that previously characterized his artistic creation and increasingly began to use abstract imagery. His subjects became more intangible and connected to natural phenomena\, laws and physics. Unconventional material became prominent in his works and often overtook the outcome of individual works; at the same time\, he adopted freer methods by working directly with the material. Ásmundur built his studio and home\, the Dome\, in several stages during the years 1942-59. \nThe exhibition As If to Demonstrate an Eclipse is the first of two exhibitions opening in Ásmundarsafn in 2021. An exhibition with new works by Carl Boutard and Ásmundur’s historic works will open in the autumn. With these exhibitions\, Ásmundarsafn opens after its greatest renovation since opening to the public in 1986. Visitors gain a new perspective on the legacy of the well-known and beloved artist through the lens of two contemporary artists and in the beautiful surroundings that Ásmundarsafn and the park shape.

SUMMARY:Carl Boutard & Ásmundur Sveinsson: Gróður jarðar
DESCRIPTION:Höggmyndalist Carls Boutard hefur þróast út frá staðfastri ástríðu listamannsins fyrir umhverfinu\, einkum undir beru lofti. Verk hans eru gjarnan unnin í samhengi við almannarými og þau endurspegla tengsl á milli manns\, náttúru og menningar. Carl lýsir sér sem „gamaldags myndhöggvara“ og vísar þá til áherslu sinnar á efni og form og þá virkni verkanna að þau taki breytingum eftir því frá hvaða sjónarhorni horft er á þau. Þar má gjarnan sjá tilraunir með tómarúm eða op inni í mótaðri umgjörð. Verkin kunna að virðast óhlutbundin en þau eru iðulega dregin af náttúrulegum formum sem finna má agnarsmá í jurtaríkinu eða gríðarstór í himingeiminum. \nFjölmargt í listsköpun Carls Boutard á sér samsvörun í ævistarfi Ásmundar Sveinssonar. \nÞað er spennandi að sjá verk þessara myndhöggvara ólíkra tíma kallast á. Carl sýnir ný verk eftir sjálfan sig og velur verk Ásmundar til samtals við þau. Sýningin er hluti af sýningartvennu í Ásmundarsafni árið 2021 en sýning Sirru Sigrúnar Sigurðardóttur verður opnuð snemma árs og sýning Carls að hausti. Með þessum sýningum opnar Ásmundarsafn eftir mestu endurbætur frá því það var opnað almenningi árið 1986. Gestir öðlast nýja sýn á arfleifð hins gamalkunna og ástsæla listamanns í gegnum linsu tveggja samtímalistamanna og í hinu fallega umhverfi sem Ásmundarsafn og garðurinn í kring móta. \nCarl Boutard er fæddur 1975 í Kiruna\, Svíþjóð og stundaði nám við Malmö Art Academy og Listaháskóla Íslands í Reykjavík. Auk þess hefur hann lært arkitektúr við Konunglegu tækniháskólann í Stokkhólmi. Verk Boutards hafa verið sýnd í Listasafni Malmö\, Lunds Konsthall\, Sven-Harrys konstmuseum\, Artipelag\, Bonniers Konsthall og Centre Culturel Suédois í París. Boutard hlaut ISCP-styrkinn í New York árið 2015 og meðal verka hans í almannarými eru skúlptúrar í Stokkhólmi\, Uppsölum\, Karlstad\, Lundi í Svíþjóð sem og í Heidenheim\, Þýskalandi. Hann á verk í söfnunum í Malmö Art Museum\, Public Art Agency Sweden og Skissernas Museum – Museum of Artistic Process and Public Art í Lundi. Carl er lektor við myndlistardeild Listaháskóla Íslands. \nSýningarstjóri:Markús Þór Andrésson

SUMMARY:Carl Boutard & Ásmundur Sveinsson: Budding Earth
DESCRIPTION:Carl Boutard’s sculptural practice has been shaped by his constant longing for the outdoors. Often situated or made in public space\, it observes and reflects on the relationship between human beings\, nature and culture. Carl describes himself as an “old-fashioned sculptor” and refers to his emphasis on material and form\, and the function of the works to change depending on the point of view from which they are viewed. There you can often see experiements with emptiness or an opening inside a molded frame. The works may appear abstract\, but are often drawn from natural forms that can be found in the tiny plant kingdom or in the vast universe. \nMuch of Carl Boutard’s art practice is paralleled in the lifework of Ásmundur Sveinsson. It is exciting to see the work of these sculptors from different times call upon one another. Carl exhibits new work after himself and selects work by Ásmundar in conversation with them. The exhibition is part of a two-exhibition series in Reykjavík Art Museum – Ásmundarsafn during 2021\, including an exhibition of work by Sirra Sigrún Sigurðardóttir to open early in the year and Carl’s exhibition will follow in the fall. With these exhibitions\, Ásmundarsafn will re-open following the largest renovation since its opening to the public in 1986. Visitors will gain new perspective on the heritage of the well-known and cared for artist through the lens of two contemporary artists\, and within the beautiful environment of Ásmundarsafn and the surrounding garden. \nCarl Boutard\, born 1975 in Kiruna\, has studied at Malmö Art Academy and Iceland University of the Arts\, Reykjavik. In addition\, he has studied architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. Boutard’s work has been shown at Malmö Art Museum\, Lunds Konsthall\, Sven-Harrys konstmuseum\, Artipelag\, Bonniers Konsthall and Centre Culturel Suédois in Paris. Boutard was awarded the ISCP-scholarship in New York in 2015 and his public commissions include sites in Stockholm\, Uppsala\, Karlstad\, Lund and Heidenheim\, Germany. He is represented in the collections at Malmö Art Museum\, Public Art Agency Sweden and Skissernas Museum – Museum of Artistic Process and Public Art in Lund. Carl is Assistant Professor at the Department of Fine Art at Iceland University of the Arts. \nCurator: Markús Þór Andrésson

SUMMARY:Ásmundur Sveinsson and Rósa Gísladóttir
DESCRIPTION:Rósa Gísladóttir exhibits her work in a conversation with the work of Ásmundur Sveinsson. Sculptors from different periods meet in dialogue that offers a new insight into Ásmundur’s heritage and introduces new works by a contemporary artist to the viewers. \nIn her career\, Rósa has worked with various materials but she is best known for plaster sculptures which have taken on different shapes and sizes throughout her career. She often works with artistic references to architecture and cultural history and will utilise Ásmundarsafn\, the museum building itself\, as a sculpture. Ásmundur built “The Dome Building” at Sigtún in a few stages between 1942 and 1959. It was his home and his studio\, and here the studio atmosphere from both Ásmundur and Rósa will meet and become visible. \nRósa Gísladóttir (b. 1957) studied art in Germany\, England and Iceland. Her work has been exhibited widely in Iceland and abroad\, including in Scandinavia House in New York\, Saatchi Gallery in London\, Reykjavík Art Museum\, Hafnarborg Centre of Culture and Fine Art\, LÁ Art Museum and Berg Contemporary. In 2020\, Rósa became the first recipient of the Gerður Award\, given to an outstanding sculptor. \nÁsmundur Sveinsson (1893-1982) was among the pioneers of Icelandic sculpture and one of the artists who introduced new art ideas to Icelanders in the 20th century. Ásmundur was inspired by Icelandic folktales and myths\, but he also drew a lot from the society and technological advances of his time. Ásmundur’s work can be found in public places all over the country and are prominent in Reykjavík. He stayed true to his opinion that the art should be for the people and belonged with the people. \nÁsmundur left his works and his home to the city of Reykjavík. Ásmundarsafn at Sigtún was formally opened in spring 1983 and has hosted diverse exhibitions. \nCurators:\n\nAldís Snorradóttir\nEdda Halldórsdóttir

SUMMARY:Ásmundur Sveinsson og Rósa Gísladóttir
DESCRIPTION:Rósa Gísladóttir sýnir verk sín í samtali við verk Ásmundar Sveinssonar. Myndhöggvarar tveggja tíma mætast í samtali sem veitir nýja sýn á arfleifð Ásmundar ásamt því að kynna fyrir gestum ný verk starfandi listamanns. \nRósa hefur á ferli sínum fengist við ýmsan efnivið en hún er þekktust fyrir gifsskúlptúra sem hafa tekið á sig ólík form og stærðir í gegnum tíðina. Í verkum sínum vinnur Rósa gjarnan með listrænar tilvísanir í arkitektúr og menningarsöguna og mun vinna með Ásmundarsafn sjálft sem skúlptúr. Ásmundur reisti „kúluhúsið“ við Sigtún í nokkrum áföngum á árunum 1942-59. Hann hafði þar heimili og vinnustofu og mun vinnustofustemmning þeirra beggja\, Ásmundar og Rósu\, mætast og vera gerð sýnileg. \nRósa Gísladóttir (f. 1957) nam myndlist í Þýskalandi\, Bretlandi og á Íslandi. Verk hennar hafa verið sýnd víða hérlendis og erlendis\, þar á meðal í Scandinavia House í New York\, Saatchi Gallery í London\, Listasafni Reykjavíkur\, Hafnarborg\, Listasafni Árnesinga og Berg Contemporary. Árið 2020 var Rósa fyrsti handhafi Gerðarverðlaunanna sem eru veitt framúrskarandi myndlistarmanni sem vinnur í skúlptúr og rýmisverk. \nÁsmundur Sveinsson (1893–1982) var á meðal frumkvöðla íslenskrar höggmyndalistar og einn þeirra sem kynntu fyrir Íslendingum nýjar hugmyndir í myndlist 20. aldar. Ásmundur sótti innblástur í íslenskar sagnir og þjóðtrú en samfélagið og tækniframfarir 20. aldar voru honum einnig ríkuleg uppspretta hugmynda. Verk Ásmundar eru á opinberum stöðum víða um land og setja svip sinn á Reykjavík. Hann hélt alla tíð tryggð við þá afstöðu að listin ætti erindi til fólksins og ætti heima á meðal þess. Ásmundur ánafnaði Reykjavíkurborg verk sín ásamt heimili sínu eftir sinn dag. Ásmundarsafn við Sigtún var opnað formlega vorið 1983 og þar hafa verið settar upp fjölbreyttar sýningar. \nSýningarstjórar: \n\nAldís Snorradóttir\nEdda Halldórsdóttir

SUMMARY:Unndór Egill Jónsson og Ásmundur Sveinsson: Eftir stórhríðina
DESCRIPTION:Á sýningunni mætast myndhöggvarar tveggja tíma í samtali sem veitir nýja sín á arfleifð Ásmundar Sveinssonar ásamt því að kynna fyrir gestum ný verk starfandi listamanns. Að þessu sinni sýnir Unndór Egill Jónsson verk sín í samtali við verk Ásmundar en safnið hefur nú um nokkurt skeið unnið með arfleifð Ásmundar á þennan hátt. \nÞegar kemur að því að greina samtímann og glöggva sig á tíðarandanum getur reynst gjöfult að líta til sögunnar. Mikilvægt er að sjá fortíðina í ljósi samtímans\, en einnig öfugt; að bera daginn í dag saman við það sem á undan er gengið\, vega og meta hlutina og fá þannig skýrari mynd eða ný sjónarhorn. Ásmundur Sveinsson komst svo að orði: \n„Ég get ómögulega séð að fortíð og nútíð séu í andstöðu hvor við aðra. Stórfljótin hætta ekki að streyma\, þó að kvíslarnar falli í þau. (…) Án nýrra verka\, án nútímans\, hættir fortíðin að vekja áhuga. Þá verður hún að uppistöðulóni sem þornar í mollunni“ (Matthías Johannessen\, Bókin um Ásmund\, bls. 34). \nÁsmundur Sveinsson (1893–1982) og Unndór Egill Jónsson (1978) eru myndhöggvarar tveggja tíma. Annar var fæddur að Kolsstöðum í Dalasýslu undir lok 19. aldar og starfaði í landslagi þeirrar uppbyggingar\, framþróunar og tæknivæðingar sem módernisminn boðaði. Hinn lauk myndlistarnámi árið 2011 og er hluti af kynslóð sem stendur frammi fyrir því að vinda ofan af offari fyrri kynslóða.  Titill sýningarinnar Eftir stórhríðina er fenginn úr bréfi sem Ásmundur skrifaði móður sinni frá Kaupmannahöfn árið 1920 en þar lýsir hann verki sem hann vinnur að og sýnir „lík sem liggur hálft á kafi í snjó“. Verkið hefur því miður ekki varðveist en hann nefnir það þessu myndræna heiti\, Eftir stórhríðina. Í samhengi sýningarinnar má líta á stórhríðina sem þá hringiðu breytinga sem urðu á 20. öld á öllum sviðum mannlegrar tilvistar og sem listsköpun Ásmundar endurspeglar. Hugmyndafræði þess tíma hefur getið af sér upplausnarástand sem nú ríkir\, einkum í umhverfismálum\, og Unndór tekst meðal annars á við í verkum sínum. \nBáðir eru Ásmundur og Unndór fagmenn á sínu sviði\, miklir handverks- og hugsjónamenn. Nokkrir þættir öðrum fremur tengja þá og listsköpun þeirra; notkun á efnivið\, þar sem viður leikur stórt hlutverk\, hreyfingin og hreyfanleikinn sem gjarnan er til staðar í verkum þeirra\, og svo sýn þeirra á og innblástur frá náttúrunni við sköpun verka. \n  \nUnndór Egill Jónsson (1978) útskrifaðist með BA-gráðu frá myndlistardeild Listaháskóla Íslands árið 2008 og lauk MFA-námi frá Valand School of Art í Gautaborg árið 2011. Undanfarin ár hefur hann sýnt bæði á Íslandi og erlendis\, meðal annars á samsýningunum Momentum Design í Moss í Noregi árið 2010\, Ríki\, flóra\, fána\, fabúla í Listasafni Reykjavíkur árið 2016\, í Estonian Museum of Contemporary Art í Tallinn í Eistlandi árið 2018 og á sýningunni Abrakadabra í Listasafni Reykjavíkur árið 2021. Árið 2020 hélt Unndór einkasýninguna Cul de Sac í Kling og Bang í Marshall-húsinu. \nÁsmundur Sveinsson (1893–1982) var á meðal frumkvöðla íslenskrar höggmyndalistar og einn þeirra sem kynntu fyrir Íslendingum nýjar hugmyndir í myndlist 20. aldar.

SUMMARY:Unndór Egill Jónsson and Ásmundur Sveinsson: After the Blizzard
DESCRIPTION:Unndór Egill Jónsson exhibits his work in a conversation with the work of Ásmundur Sveinsson. Sculptors from different periods meet in dialogue that offers a new insight into Ásmundur’s heritage and introduces new works by a contemporary artist to the viewers. The museum has been working with Ásmund’s legacy in this way for some time now. \nUnndór Egill Jónsson (1978) graduated with a bachelor’s degree from the art department of the Iceland Academy of the Arts in 2008 and completed an MFA from the Valand School of Art in Gothenburg in 2011. In recent years\, he has exhibited both in Iceland and abroad\, including a group exhibition Momentum Design in Moss in Norway in 2010\, Riki\, flora\, fána\, fabula in the Reykjavík Art Museum in 2016\, in the Estonian Museum of Contemporary Art in Tallinn\, Estonia in 2018 and in Abrakadabra in the Reykjavík Art Museum in 2021. In 2020\, Unndór held the solo exhibition Cul de Sac in Kling and Bang in the Marshall House. \nÁsmundur Sveinsson (1893-1982) was among the pioneers of Icelandic sculpture and one of the artists who introduced new art ideas to Icelanders in the 20th century. Ásmundur was inspired by Icelandic folktales and myths\, but he also drew a lot from the society and technological advances of his time. Ásmundur’s work can be found in public places all over the country and are prominent in Reykjavík. He stayed true to his opinion that the art should be for the people and belonged with the people. Ásmundur left his works and his home to the city of Reykjavík. Ásmundarsafn at Sigtún was formally opened in spring 1983 and has hosted diverse exhibitions. \nCurators: Aldís Snorradóttir and Edda Halldórsdóttir

SUMMARY:Sigga Björg & Ásmundur Sveinsson: Breath on a Window
DESCRIPTION:The world of trolls\, elves\, ghosts and other creatures opens up in the exhibition Ghost at the window. Reykjavík Art Museum continues to present new works by contemporary artist in Ásmundarsafn\, where they meet in dialogue with  Ásmund Sveinsson’s visual world and his unique house in Laugardalur. \nNow the focus is on legends\, fairy tales and imagination. \nSigga Björg is known for her imaginative drawings\, installations\, videos and books. She has created a unique visual world where fantasy\, humor and horror go hand in hand. In her works\, she threads the emotional life in all its chaos and creates moods that are almost impossible to put into words\, but with her characteristic style she manages to express the most incredible nuances. At this exhibition\, she works\, among other things\, on a new series based on Icelandic folk tales. In Sigga Björg´s drawings she mixes splashes and randomness with fine precision and patterns. Her works are created equally on the walls of showrooms and on paper. \nÁsmundur Sveinsson shaped his imagery in sculpture that spanned everything from a figurative method to an abstract one. He worked in line with the direction and trends of the modernist development of the 20th century and always worked with material and form. He initially drew inspiration and imagery from the local environment\, human life\, cultural heritage and nature\, but later the subjects became more abstract and entered the realm of natural laws and cosmic dimensions. He said that in his youth\, when he was growing up on a farm in the Valleys\, he had come across folk tales and legends. Much of it found its way directly or indirectly into his work. Ásmundur once recalled a memory of a verse that was sung when children were being put to sleep on the farm: \nKeep still\, keep quiet \nWoe lurks in the shadow \nI‘ve heard through the night \nA breath on a window.
