Guðmundur Thorsteinsson led a full life, though it was cut short by tuberculosis. This retrospective presents a wide selection of his work, created under his artist name Muggur. Scenes from his global travels and images of a merciful Christ curing the sick sit alongside Muggur’s fantasy worlds, where princesses live in castles and trolls lurk. JP
