Material Time/Work Time/Life Time

The first Reykjavik Art Festival dedicated to visual art was in 2005 and presented an international exhibition that brought attention to Iceland as a site of cultural production.

Over 30 Icelandic and international artists were brought together to respond to the theme of the exhibition. The majority of the artists created new works and this ambitous project saw collaboration of  traditional and untraditional venues in Reykjavík and around Iceland.
