Reykjavík Grapevine - 28.09.2013, Blaðsíða 41

Exhibition On Snæfellsjökull
Gallerí Fold

French-born, ‘Land Art’ artist Anne Herzog
will be showing experimental paintings of
the volcano Snæfellsjökull, made mostly from
wax. Anne is inspired by nature in both pro-
jection as well as material use, often using
elements found in the wilderness to evoke
natural mysticism in her work. Anne has
spent three years focused on creating work
around Snæfellsjökull in an attempt to place
it at the center of the earth. AB

‘Into The Mind’ Film Premiere 20:00
Bío Paradís From 2,200 ISK

Blurring the line between dream state and
reality, ‘Into The Mind’ will let you look into
the psyche of a skier who has accepted
a lofty challenge – to climb and ski the
ultimate mountain. Through astonishing
photography, you will be taken on a journey
around the globe, from Alaska to Bolivia,
Switzerland, Nepal and Costa Rica. But ‘Into
The Mind’ also poses philosophical ques-
tions about what it is that inspires us to
overcome life’s obstacle and what we learn
along the way. The result is both visually
stunning and moving. Grab a ticket for this
one-off special event on midi.is. AKL
