Hlynur Hallsson opnar sýninguna Rennandi vatn og fleiri ný verk í Populus tremula laugardaginn 9. mars kl. 14. Hann sýnir hér eins og nafnið gefur til kynna nokkur ný verk sem ekki hafa verið sýnd áður. Þetta er myndband, ljósmynd og spreyjaðir textar.

Hlynur Hallsson er fæddur á Akureyri 1968. Hann stundaði myndlistarnám á Akureyri, í Reykjavík, Hannover, Hamborg og í Düsseldorf. Hann hefur verið nokkuð iðinn við að setja upp sýningar og á síðasta ári tók hann þátt í sýningunni Lókal - Glóbal í Listasafninu á Akureyri sem Hlynur Helgason stýrði í tilefni af 150 ára afmæli Akureyrarbæjar og einnig sýningunni Sjálfstætt fólk ásamt Jónu Hlíf Halldórsdóttur á Listahátíð í Reykjavík í Hafnarhúsi Listasafns Reykjavíkur undir stjórn Jonatans Habib Engqvist. Hlynur gaf út bókina MYNDIR - BILDER - PICTURES árið 2011 með 33 ljósmynda- textaverkum. Hann hefur einnig verið sýningarstjóri fjölda sýninga eins og TEXT sem sett var upp hjá Kuckei+Kuckei í Berlín haustið 2011. Hann var einnig meðal stofnenda Verksmiðjunnar á Hjalteyri þar sem settar hafa verið upp sýningar síðustu ár. Hlynur er listrænn ráðgjafi hjá Flóru á Akureyri.
Hlynur hlaut verðlaun Kunstverein Hannover 1997, verðlaun ungra myndlistarmanna í Neðra-Saxlandi 2001 og verðlaun Sparda Bank árið 2006. Hann hefur nokkrum sinnum hlotið starfslaun myndlistarmanna og var bæjarlistarmaður Akureyrar árið 2005. Hlynur vinnur með aðstæður, texta, innsetningar, ljósmyndir, gjörninga og hvað eina, allt eftir því sem hentar í hverju tilfelli. Hversdagslegir atburðir eins og sundferðir, fjallganga eða verslunarleiðangur geta verið efniviður í verkum hans en einnig landmæri, samskipti fólks og viðhorf okkar. Nánari upplýsingar um Hlyn og verk hans er að finna á heimsíðunni hallsson.de og einnig á bloggsíðunni hlynur.is

Sýningin art PARK(ing) Day í Artíma

Verið velkomin á sýninguna art PARK(ing) Day í Artíma Gallerí, Skúlagötu 28 (innangengt af Nýló).

Sýningin er tileinkuð viðburðinum art PARK(ing) Day sem haldinn var á Óðinstorgi 21. september.

Með sýningunni er ákveðnum hring lokað þar sem myndlist sem var gert að standast veður og vinda í almenningsrými, er færð aftur inn í hið örugga sýningarrými. Spurningin um hvort að listin nái betur til almennings í almenningsrýminu eða sýningarrýminu vaknar í kjölfarið.

NÚNINGUR / FRICTION - Listasafn ASÍ / ASÍ Art Museum

Myndlistin í borginni – borgin í myndlistinni

Laugardaginn 14. apríl kl. 15 opnar í Listasafni ASÍ á Skólavörðuholti sýningin Núningur. Í sýningunni taka þátt 33 lista- og fræðimenn auk nokkurra annarra gesta.

Meginþema sýningarinnar er núningur borgar og menningar og birtingarmyndir listarinnar í samfélaginu. Sýningin hverfist um hugmyndir listamanna sem nýta sér þær sérstæðu aðstæður sem borgin býður uppá, allt frá einfaldri framsetningu borgarinnar í myndlist til hverskonar vinnu með staðhætti, inngrip í opinber rými, jafnt sem flóknari samfélagslegar tengingar.

Nokkrir þessara listamanna hafa komið að kennslu í vinnustofu á vormisseri við Listaháskóla Íslands, þar sem nemendur hafa tekist á við tengdar listhugmyndir og þróað út frá þeim verk á sínum forsendum fyrir sýninguna.

Einnig taka þátt í sýningunni fræðimenn sem skrifa greinar um „myndlistina í borginni og borgina í myndlistinni“ út frá eigin sjónarmiðum og yfirskrift sýningarinnar.

 

Sýningin í Listasafni ASÍ er einskonar miðstöð eða vinnustofa verkefnisins, en nokkur af verkum listamannana verða einnig sett upp á ólíkum tímum og í margvíslegum birtingarmyndum á víð og dreif um borgina á þessu ári. Á sýningunni verða bakgrunnsupplýsingar um verk og athafnir listamannanna. Sýningarrýmið er þannig einskonar rannsóknarmiðstöð eða sameiginleg vinnustofa ólíkra listamanna. Vikulega á sýningartímanum verður boðið til umræðna og málþinga um hugmyndir og verkefni listamannanna og málefni þeim tengdum.

 

Sýningarstjórar eru Einar Garibaldi Eiríksson, Kristinn E. Hrafnsson og Ólafur S. Gíslason

Aðrir sýnendur eru:

Ásdís Sif Gunnarsdóttir, Ásmundur Ásmundsson, Berglind Jóna Hlynsdóttir, Brynjar Helgason, Christian Hasucha, Elin Wikström, Gunnar J. Árnason, Hjálmar Sveinsson, Hlynur Hallsson, Indriði Arnar Ingólfsson, Ingirafn Steinarsson, Ívar Glói Gunnarsson, Karl Torsten Stallborn, Katrín Eyjólfsdóttir, Katrína Mogensen, Margrét H. Blöndal í samstafi við Harald Jónsson og Hörpu Árnadóttur, Nikulás Stefán Nikulásson, Nína Óskarsdóttir, Páll Haukur Björnsson, Ósk Vilhjálmsdóttir, Ragna Sigurðardóttir, Stefán Óli Baldursson, Una Ösp Steingrímsdóttir, Unnar Örn J. Auðarson, Þorvaldur Þorsteinsson, Þröstur Valgarðsson, Æsa Sigurjónsdóttir.

 

Safnið er opið alla daga nema mánudaga frá kl. 13 til 17 og aðgangur er ókeypis.

Sýningunni lýkur 13. maí.

(I)ndependent People at Reykjavík Art Festival

 

Reykjavík Arts Festival announces Visual Arts Program for 2012:
(I)ndependent People
Collaborations and Artist Initiatives

-Opening weekend 18 – 21 May 2012
-Seminar May 20
-Many exhibitions will run throughout the summer
-Follow the project on: www.independentpeople.is

Reykjavík Arts Festival 2012 announces (I)ndependent People, a large-scale collaborative international visual arts project that will involve many of Reykjavík’s exhibition spaces, museums, galleries and public space during the festival season and throughout the summer. Focusing on contemporary visual art from the Nordic and Baltic countries, (I)ndependent People asks if and how collaboration can operate in continual negotiation between contesting ideas and desires, yet allowing unplanned and transformative action. All participating artists are engaged in established or temporary joint ventures. These artist-collectives, partnerships, collaborative workshops and exchanges serve as a dynamic investigation of artistic subjectivity and authorship.

The extensive project brings together 29 artist-collectives with the collaboration of over 100 participants. (I)ndependent People is curated by Swedish curator and theorist Jonatan Habib Engqvist and made possible through exchange and collaborative undertakings between a cluster of museums, galleries, artist-run spaces and institutions. Venues include Reykjavík Art Museum, The National Gallery of Iceland, The Nordic House, Kling & Bang, The Living Art Museum, The Icelandic Sculpture Association and ASÍ Art Museum, together with public space in Reykjavík and off-site events. Saturday May 19 will be dedicated to openings of the exhibitions with receptions and events at the venues from morning to evening and Sunday May 20 will host an international seminar.

Central to the exhibitions is the balancing act of remaining between controlling structures, formalising agreements, constituting norms and allowing change. Several projects will be realised during the course of the exhibitions, some with uncertain results. “By putting the ‘I’ in parenthesis and giving up the authorship of a singular artistic Subject, a specific uncertainty is created and another, hybrid identity is made possible. The in-between of such collaboration can become a site for social and cultural change. This temporary in-between space created in Reykjavík will serve as a platform for ideas yet to be imagined, examined and constructed. It’s a position that can be portrayed as ambiguous and indefinable, but these very qualities often make contemporary art worth putting our hopes to.” says curator Jonatan Habib Engqvist.

Participating artists groups are: 1857 – A kassen – Anonymous – AIM Europe – Box – Endemi – Goksøyr & Martens – IC98 – The Icelandic Love Corporation – Institut før Degeneret Kunst – Jóna Hlíf Halldórsdóttir & Hlynur Hallsson – Kling & Bang – Learning Site & Jaime Stapleton – M.E.E.H. – Nomeda & Gediminas Urbonas + MIT 4.333 – Melissa Dubbin & Aaron S. Davidsson – No Gods No Parents (UKS) – NÝLÓ & Archive of Artist Run Initiatives – Raflost & Steina – Sofia Hultén & Ivan Seal – Superflex – The Artist Formerly Known as Geist – The Awareness Muscle Team – The Leyline Project – The New Beauty Council with Elin Strand Ruin, Mariana Alves & Katarina Bonnevier – Útidúr – Wooloo.

A historical core serves as a common point of reference for the exhibitions. Local trajectories of collaborative and artist-initiated practices from the region reaching over 40 years serve as background to questions such as: Do we share common, “alternative” histories in the Nordic region? Is it relevant to peruse them? How have the networks changed over time? Is it possible, desirable, to create dynamic and sustainable collaboration? These questions, and more will be addressed in a seminar on May 20 in the Nordic House with, among others, Lars Bang Larsen, Jon Proppe, Signal and participating artists.

Exhibition venues are Reykjavík Art Museum, The National Gallery of Iceland, The Nordic House, Kling & Bang, The Living Art Museum, The Icelandic Sculpture Association, ASÍ Art Museum and public space in downtown Reykjavík. In addition, several independent projects are participating, including HORIZONIC, curated by Ásdís Ólafsdóttir in LA Art Museum; a two-man show curated by Chris Fite-Wassilak in i8 gallery; and a project by Art in Translation. A real-time video of the twelve hour performance “Bliss” by Ragnar Kjartansson and a large group of collaborators will be installed in the National Theatre of Iceland.

After successful Festivals in 2005 and 2008 with focus on visual arts, curated by Jessica Morgan and Björn Roth (2005) and Hans Ulrich Obrist and Ólafur Elíasson (2008), the visual arts program of this year’s Festival is produced in collaboration between The Reykjavík Arts Festival, Reykjavík Art Museum, The National Gallery of Iceland, The Nordic House, The Living Art Museum and The Icelandic Art Center. The collaboration has been expanded further to include Art Nord, Endemi, EDDA Center of Excellence, Kling & Bang, The Icelandic Sculpture Association, SÍM – Association of Icelandic Visual Artists, Reykjavík University, The Iceland Academy of Arts, MIT Boston, Torpedo Press and Art in Translation.

Most of the exhibitions will be on view through July/August. A complete program of all Reykjavík Arts Festival 2012 events, including concerts, theatre, literature, dance and visual arts, will be announced April 12, 2012 on www.artfest.is and www.independentpeople.is.

Síðustu forvöð að sjá sýninguna "rencontre platonique" í Musée Denys-Puech í Rodez

MUSÉE DENYS-PUECH – RODEZ

rencontre platonique

1ER OCTOBRE 2011 - 29 JANVIER 2012

Elise Boularan
Gabriel Desplanque
Hlynur Hallsson
Olya Ivanova
Gabriel Jones

Samedi 1er octobre 2011 à 14h00
Inauguration 23ème édition des PHOTOfolies, Hôtel de ville
16h45 Découverte de l’exposition Rencontre Platonique au musée Denys-Puech
Circuit déambulatoire dans les différents lieux d’expositions.

Cinq regards photographiques autour de «grandeur et décadence».

Dans le cadre des Photofolies 2011, le musée Denys-Puech s’est joint à la revue d’images Platonique afin de proposer une exposition collective de photographes contemporains venus du monde entier. Cette revue, créée et imaginée en 2009 par un duo d’artistes plasticiens, Sophie Roube et Benoît Blein, est pensée comme une galerie virtuelle d’images.

Rencontre Platonique s’affiche comme une escapade photographique, elle a pour volonté de proposer un éventail d’images allant de la photographie plasticienne à la photographie documentaire. Elle se présente comme un parcours découverte exposant toutes les formes de création qui utilisent l’image, sans tenir compte du clivage entre photographie et art contemporain.

Le travail photographique d’Elise Boularan fonctionne par séries en essayant de faire disparaître les dichotomies entre le bien et le mal, le noir et le blanc, la réalité et la fiction. Gabriel Desplanque, lui, nous parle de corps en mouvement, de force gravitationnelle, parfois même de violence dissimulée. Hlynur Hallsson nous fait voyager : toujours « on the road », il nous fait partager images et sentiments à travers tous les continents et toutes les cultures dans lesquels il passe. Olya Ivanova nous plonge, au travers de portraits touchants d’adolescents russes dans un monde à la fois intimiste et documentaire. Enfin, Gabriel Jones renverse la réalité apparente de ces images vers un univers troublant. L’étrangeté de ces paysages photographiques nous rappelle que rien n’est instantané et que la mise en scène est bien présente, esthétiquement palpable.

Alors que dans le musée, les images prennent corps, l’exposition dévoile les coups de cœur photographiques de la revue Platonique et rend hommage aux artistes associés.
