50 Years of Icelandic Art at the Venice

Biennale Exhibit with artist/curator talks and symposiums on select Sundays

For the three months leading up to this year’s International Art Exhibition in Venice, the Reykjavík Art Museum will be offering a unique retrospective on Iceland’s contributions to the Venice Biennale throughout the years. It will be located in Kjarvalsstaðir and feature photos, documentaries and actual pieces by the score or so of delegates we’ve had, five of whom will be giving special artist talks during the course of the exhibition. This offers a fascinating must-see for any art enthusiast, Icelandic or otherwise, as the Biennale has been home to some of the most accomplished and dedicated artistic visionaries of the century.
