Ragnar Kjartansson: Artist Talk

Ragnar Kjartansson, an emerging artist from Iceland, will be introduced in conversation with the curator, Markús Thór Andrésson,in conjunction with his thesis exhibition "Repeat Performances: Roni Horn and Ragnar Kjartansson".

There will be a special focus on how Kjartansson takes on local elements in his site specific and commissioned work, FOLKSONG. Kjartansson will relate the work to his previous practice as a performance artist and musician, showing images and videos of earlier works. His practice of crossing over the fields of music, art and theater will also be a topic of discussion.
