Curated by Berlin artists Sabine
Schirdewahn and Matthias
Wagner, ICELAND::FILM explores
the progress and development
of Icelandic film making from it’s
genesis of 1904 to the year 2008.
Over approximately 100 films can be
selected and viewed on one of four
specially designed ‘film islands’, one
island for each genre; documentary,
short film, feature film and literature
adaptation. The show can be
reccommended, and provides a
somewhat comprehensive overview
of Icelandic social and cultural
heritage over the past 100 years.
