Libia Castro & Ólafur Ólafsson: Under De-
construction
Runs until February 19
National Gallery of Iceland
800 ISK (500 ISK for concessions)
Under Deconstruction will be on exhibit at the National Gallery of Iceland until
February 19. This most recent collaboration between Libia Castro & Ólafur Ólafsson
is a combination of older collaborations and new works. In fact the neon ‘Landið
þitt er ekki til’ (“Your Country Does Not Exist”) is part of an ongoing Libia & Ólafur
campaign that began back in 2003 and has made its way around the world in vari-
ous permutations.
Libia & Ólafur collaborations explore the political, socio-economic, and personal
forces that affect life in the present day. They provide an interesting, colourful and
thought-provoking insight into post-Kreppa Iceland (and indeed a post-crisis world
in general). Take advantage whilst you can.
