Welcome to the opening of the exhibition Karin Sander 1957-2057 which will open at the Reykjavík Arts Festival on May 30th at 2:00 PM in Hafnarhús.

The exhibition opens at the same time as the Reykjavík Arts Festival and will feature a grand opening program at the museum and a special opening performance by Karin Sander.

Karin Sander is a celebrated German artist who has cultivated a long-standing relationship with Iceland since her first visit thirty years ago. Many of her works draw inspiration from the country’s landscape, culture, and society.  

Reykjavík Art Museum now presents a comprehensive exhibition of both new and earlier works, organized in collaboration with the Reykjavík Arts Festival. Sander’s practice often involves the participation of visitors and explores the interplay between material, time, and place. The exhbition presence in place examines notions of presence and site-specificity - geographical, bodily, and experiential. Visitors are invited to be 3D scanned and reproduced as small figurines; blank canvases placed throughout the country gather surface traces under varying conditions; and a neon sign situates viewers within Hafnarhús according to Google Earth coordinates.  

Karin Sander (b.1957) is known for her conceptual approach to material and space, working with everyday objects, architecture, and digital media. Her work has been exhibited internationally at leading institutions, including the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023, Kunstmuseum Winterthur, and SFMoma. In 2018, she won a competition for a public artwork in Reykjavík.
