All are welcome to an artist talk with Claire Paugam, El\u00edsabet Brynhildard\u00f3ttir and Geir\u00fer\u00fa\u00f0ur Finnbogad\u00f3ttir Hj\u00f6rvar Thursday 26th October at 5 p.m. in Ger\u00f0arsafn K\u00f3pavogur Art Museum.
The museum is open until 9 p.m. that evening as a part of Good Thursday where a number of art museums and exhibition spaces in and around Reykjavik offer extended opening hours.
The restaurant Kr\u00f3nikan is also open until 9 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The exhibition series Sculpture\/Sculpture is now held for the fifth time in Ger\u00f0arsafn, where an attempt is made to explore the position sculpture holds in modern times. The series explores the development of three-dimensional art, with references to the pioneering work of Ger\u00f0ur Helgad\u00f3ttir (1928-1975) within Icelandic sculpture. The title refers to Sculpture\/Sculpture\/Sculpture, a 1994 group exhibition of 29 artists at Kjarvalssta\u00f0ir which offered an important overview of Icelandic sculpture at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This fifth exhibition in the series at Ger\u00f0arsafn is different from the previous ones as it seeks to assess the status of modern sculpture with works from ten different artists. There is no single common denominator with all the participating artists, but the discourse between their works unveils interesting references to sculpture\u2019s status as an art medium, its possibilities and its relevance to the present times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
