WATSKEBURT?
Kaffistofa, 16:00
Free
A group of four Icelandic artists, all
related to the Amsterdam art scene,
will show their works in the Iceland
Acedemy of the Arts gallery. The name
is some kind of Dutch slang that means
“what is happening?”, and that’s just
what we’re wondering. Lucidity and
flow characterises the works of the
exhibition, wherein they explore the
borders of virtual and actual reality.
There will also be a party with live
music on Culture Night. Contributing
artists are Hrafnhildur Helgadóttir, Máni
Marteinn Sigfússon, Sæmundur Þór
Helgason and Torfi Fannar Gunnarsson.
