4 Parts Divided
October 6 - November 25 | i8 Gallery | Admission: Free!
‘4 Parts Divided’ brings together four different artists to exam-
ine the concept of collaboration. One by one, they will present
their large-scale artworks at i8 Gallery, for ten days each. The
series opens with a conceptual work of porcelain sculptures by
Sigurdur Guðmundsson, created between 2001 and 2014. Part
2 features artist Birgir Andrésson’s photographs from the col-
lection ‘Different People’ (1991). Ignacio Uriarte’s ‘The History
of the Typewriter Recited by Michael Winslow’ (2008) comes
third. Ragna Róbertsdóttir closes the exhibition with her ro-
bust combination of lava bricks and ink wall drawing. Four
parts not to be missed! AB
Flowers In Bloom
Linda Óla - 'Í blóma'
October 1 - October 30 | ART67 | Admission: Free!
As autumn knocks on the door, and with winter on its way, the
flowers are still flourishing at ART67 Gallery. The paintings
of Linda Óla can be described as a combination of vivid forms
with the light tone of blooming flowers on raw linen canvas.
Of course, there’s more to her work than we can fit in here. But
as summer comes to an end, Linda makes sure the beauty of
blooming flowers is captured for posterity, and on show for
the whole of October. AB
