'Deal Me In'
Runs until June 29 | Various venues
‘Deal Me In’ is a series of micro-exhibitions, which brings to-
gether several of Iceland’s finest educational and cultural in-
stitutions, culminating in this labor of love from Art History
MA students from the University of Iceland. The various ex-
hibitions, all of which have different themes, seek to engage
those in attendance. ‘Desiccation’ (The Living Art Museum)
poses the question, “How does one preserve an idea?”, while
‘Gefjun: Icelandic Wool blankets’ exhibits a wool blanket from
1950 among other items. ‘Art In View’ (The University Art Gal-
lery) facilitates discussion surrounding the interactive gallery,
encouraging museumgoers to share observations with the
hashtag #haskolalist. KR
