Celebrate Icelandic art, culture, history and more with our
new short video series highlighting the creative arts throughout Iceland, presented
by Iceland Naturally and the Icelandic Art Center. Each week from
April 22 to May 13, we will release a new episode that highlights different aspects
of Icelandic art and features knowledgeable speakers including the Director of the
National Gallery of Iceland and the Director of the Reykjavik Art Museum, among
many more.
In this
final episode, explore three art galleries in Reykjavík and their work in North
America. Learn about i8 Gallery, a 25-year-old gallery with artistic representation
from 23 Icelandic and international artists. For the past 15 years, the gallery
has focused on sharing its art in North America through participation in art fairs
such as Armory Show in NY and Art Basel in Miami. In addition, explore BERG Contemporary,
a newly established gallery aiming to provide a diversified forum for contemporary
art. By representing emerging and established artists, BERG is seeking the resonant
tone of the present in new and innovative exhibitions. Located in an old glass factory
in Reykjavík, the gallery can also be found internationally.
