Sequences is an international art festival held biennially in Reykjavík, Iceland. Dedicated to producing and presenting progressive art, the festival aims to foster and strengthen artistic networks across different countries. Its subtitle, Real-Time Art Festival, originally emphasised time-based media but has since evolved into a conceptual prompt—one that each edition’s curators are free to interpret in their own way. Sequences was founded by Kling & Bang Gallery (an artist-run exhibition space), The Living Art Museum (an artist-run museum), and the Icelandic Art Center.
Previous artists who have exhibited at the festival include Edith Karlson, Valgerðum Briem, Benjamin Patterson, Elísabet Jökulsdóttir, Philip Jeck, Miruna Roxana Dragan, Joan Jonas, David Horvitz, Hekla Dögg Jónsdóttir, Guido van der Werve, Ragnar Kjartansson, Emily Wardill, Ragnar Helgi Ólafsson, Carolee Schneemann, Rebecca Erin Moran, Finnbogi Pétursson and Alicja Kwade to name just a few.
The curators of previous festivals have been Icelandic and foreign artists and curators, including Marika Agu, Maria Arusoo, Kaarin Kivirähk and Sten Ojavee, Þóranna Dögg Björnsdóttir and Þráinn Hjálmarsson, Hildigunnur Birgisdóttir and Ingólfur Arnarsson, Margot Norton, Markús Þór Andrésson and Alfredo Cramerotti.
Curators Raphael Fonseca and Yina Jiménez Suriel are the artistic directors of the 13th edition of the festival, which will take place in Reykjavík, Iceland, from October 1 to 10, 2027.
