Sequences will be held for the ninth time in Reykjavík October 11-20.
34 artists participate in the program, which this time spans a wide field of music, text, film, installations, drawings and sculpture to name a few.
Kristinn Guðbrandur Harðarson (b. 1955) has been selected as the biennial’s honorary artist. He has been active in the Icelandic art scene for decades. In his works a personal and poetic processing of the artist’s close environment is positioned within various mediums including texts, embroidery, sculpture, wall mural, cartoons and performances. Kristinn’s solo exhibition will be presented at Ásmundarsalur, and an artist book introduced at the same time will serve as its own independent exhibition space. A selection of older works will be exhibited in the Marshall House.
