On the Borders of Art and Philosophy 2011
The exhibition was an experiment in the philosophy of art and curatorical practice. Over a period of one year 8 philosophy - educated curators worked together on the development. The selection of artworks was based on philosophical questions raised by the artworks themselves consisting of 84 artwork by more than 60 artists. " And now there is a kind of semi heathen prayer circle slung round the art museum. The flags are painted with symbols from travel diaries ...and various natural patterns that have accumulated in the artist´s subconscious archive over time. The flags flutter outside the window of the museum´s reading room, by the harbor, facing the sea, redolent of ties to other continents. " Oddný Ævarsdóttir writer and philosopher.
