We are extremely proud to be able to present Paterson’s work here in Iceland. During these uncertain times the dates for the exhibition have not yet been set, although we are aiming towards an opening in August. We meet this situation with patience, and are very grateful for the collaboration with the artist and the Reykjavik Arts Festival, where art can surely flourish on its own terms.

Make sure to click here and sign up for the Reykjavik Arts Festival’s mailing list for this exhibition. There we will announce the dates when they have been determined.

Katie Paterson‘s works are certainly imposing, both in terms of scope and inspiration. Her ideas frequently involve transposing the immeasurable into familiar forms, such as clocks, letters, candles and light bulbs. Characterized by a poetic sense of the everyday, her work captures the expanses of outer space and of the human mind, playfully provoking and enthralling us.

Many of the artist‘s works deal directly or indirectly with man‘s effect on nature and the skies, with climate change and the short lifespan of man and earth. They serve as an urgent reminder, challenging us to rethink our relationship with nature.
