In this episode we meet artist Hekla Dögg Jónsdóttir @hekladoggjonsdottir to discuss her current mid-career retrospective at Reykjavík Art Museum – Kjarvalsstaðir @reykjavikartmuseum, an ongoing series of exhibitions that aims to draw attention to and celebrate the various contributions made by artists in Iceland. Hekla Dögg Jónsdóttir is an artist who supports other artists, whether through inviting them into her work, actively participating in the artist-led scene or as an educator who aims to contribute to a living, shifting and expanding communal arts scene. Heklas is an active member of Kling & Bang. We discuss specific works, past and present, various contemplations on recurring themes and references, and what it is like to look over one’s entire artistic career, up until now.
This episode concludes with focus in the Artwork of the Month segment on Egill Sæbjörnsson solo exhibit at the National Gallery of Iceland entitled Egill Sæbjörnsson and Infinite Friends of the Universe. The exhibition will be on display until February 25 2024, so make sure you make a visit whilst you can!
Null Island opened on November 18th at the Reykjavik Art Museum – Kjarvalsstaðir and closes on February 29th, 2024, leap year day. The exhibition is curated by Markús Þór Andrésson and a comprehensive publication has been released on the occasion.
