Keeping Icelandic
Design Alive
‘KEEPERS’
June 12, 2016 - June 4, 2017 | Museum of Design and Applied Art, Garðatorg 1 |
Admission: 500 ISK
Ever wonder how things end up in a museum’s collection, or
how curators decide which objects are worth preserving? In
the latest exhibition from the Museum of Design and Applied
Art, the focus is shifted away from the actual objects in the
museum and onto the process of curating such a gallery. Ice-
landic design is a new and evolving field, and this museum is
likewise constantly evolving to promote and display the latest
that the field has to offer. As such, the exhibition will also be
constantly evolving, to show visitors the best reflection of the
art and design that surrounds them every day. IW
