Be sure to stop by this solidarity
event going down at Nýló – The
Living Art Museum – this Saturday.
The event is in support of the
notorious “Reykjavík Nine,” the

session of parliament in the January
protests of last year. The Nine are
currently standing trial.
Many Icelandic musicians,
artists, writers, and poets will be
performing at this event, including
Einar Már Guðmundsson, Ragnar
Kjartansson, Sara Björnsdóttir,
Arnljótur Sigurðsson, Reykjavík! and
more. Be sure to get out there and
show some love. AS

Rocky Horror Sing-A-Long & Cabaret
Barbara @ 21:00
Viggó and Víóletta present the first of many Cabaret Nights at Barbara.
This Friday the entertainment starts at 21:00 with a rompous sing-a-long
screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Take part and throwdown
with your best Time Warp, plead along with Janet for someone to touch-a
touch-a touch-a touch you and laugh at this uproarious screening. If you
dress up as your own favourite Transylvanian you can score yourself a free
drink.
After the screening, Viggo and Víóletta take to the stage and perform
a cabaret-inspired rendition of various scenes from the notorious musical.
It’s sure to be an wild night, filled with corsets, fishnets, and spiked heels.
Come along for the ride to the Frankenstein’s place. AS

This is a long awaited homecoming. After
moving off to Norway a few years back,
homegrown Black Metal legend Eldur is returnin
with his band Fortíð. A prolific and renowned
artist of the genre almost everywhere except in
Iceland, Eldur is also known for his solo projects,
such as Curse and Potentiam. Now fresh off the
release of the final album of their Völuspá trilogy,
Fall Of The Ages, Fortíð will descend upon
Reykjavík in all their grim glory.
The first of their shows this weekend is on
Friday night at Venue, and will be supported by
crazy grindcore guys Forgarður Helvítis, death
metallers Wistaria and blackest-of-Black Metal
band Carpe Noctem. This one is only for the
adults, kids, but on Saturday at TÞM a.k.a. The
Cave, they will play an all-ages gig with an ALL
BLACK METAL line up! Saturdays starter acts
are Chao, Pissanthrope and Atrum. Be sure to
get all corpse-painted and stuff. RL
Painting Sites
Ingunn Fjóla Ingthórsdóttir @ Gallery Ágúst
This month Gallery Ágúst invites you to view a piece of art work from within.
Artist Ingunn Fjóla Ingthórsdóttir lets the viewer experience art through
sight, mind and kinetic energy in her exhibition Painting Site. As the viewer
enters the gallery they will witness painted chipboards propped into an
upright position which one can walk between, creating a spacial artistic
atmosphere. Each chipboard presents an individual piece of art, but as you
move further the plates gradually intertwine to reveal the entire project. The
idea is to transform the viewer's idea of the visual to the physical as one
uses their body to journey through each piece of art to the next. Go check
out the opening on July 3 at 16:00 and maybe you too can experience this
spiritual awakening. AY
