One of Iceland’s most internationally prominent

One of Iceland’s most internationally prominent artists of today, Rúrí (b. 1951) works in a wide variety of media, from sculptures, installations, and environmental art to multimedia and performance. Her piece in the 50th Venice Biennale in 2003: Archive—Endangered Waters, was an interactive multimedia installation comprised of 52 photographs of waterfalls threatened by increasing dam building. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Shot from diverse locations in the Icelandic highlands, developed on transparent film, and held between two panes of transparent glass, the photographs were encased in a large steel frame with moving slots that scientifically “archived” Iceland’s waterfalls.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As in many of her works, Rúrí highlights in this piece not only the beauty of the natural environment and the human relationship to and presence within it, but also engages viewers in a literally physical relationship with her art as well, asking them to reflect on how their own actions and movements affect the natural world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This week is your last chance to see the show Lips

This week is your last chance to see the show Lipstick State of Mind. A solo show with the last works of the late Valgerður Guðlaugsdóttir at Listamenn Gallerí ( @listamenn_gallery ). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The exhibition looks at the individual as a character wearing a mask assigned to one by society through factors such as social hierarchy, gender, physical appearance - which then define what role and rules one must follow. Through playful imagery and hues of pink she brings to light powerful issues of femininity, gender, and societal roles and expectations very relevant today.

There's a new gallery in town! Y Gallery ( @y_gallery__ ) opens its doors tomorrow at 17:00 with the show HÆG SENA / A SLOW SCENE by Una Björg Magnúsdóttir ( @unabjoerg ).

Located at an old Olís petrol station in Hambraborg, Kópavogur, we are very excited to see what this unique new space has in store!

GSM presents the exhibition series Messages from t

GSM presents the exhibition series Messages from the Deep, six solo exhibitions in frequencies hosted by Ja Ja Ja Nee Nee Nee online radio, curated by Helena Aðalsteinsdóttir ( @hl33n33 ) and Ásgerður Birna Björnsdóttir ( @b__i__r__n__a ).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
GSM is a space for solo exhibitions that is defined by a time-slot and frequencies rather than a set of walls. The artists install their work in a space consisting of minutes on air. GSM is not a space specifically for artists that use sound as a medium but rather a place for transforming artists’ works into sonic encounters.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This series features works by Alexandra Martens Serrano, Ásgerður Birna Björnsdóttir ('I feel asleep', pictured here), Henny Valentino, Mia Ghabarou, Okarina Iturralde N, and Ólöf Bóadóttir. You can experience the works at gsmexhibition.space during the festival from the 23 - 28 May and after that in their archive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
