Saturday 15 November at 12h00 in Hafnarhús, curators Markús Þór Andrésson of the Reykjavík Art Museum, Jaime DeSimone of the Portland Museum of Art and Anders Jansson of the Bildmuseet will join in conversation about the exhibiton Down Иorth: North Atlantic Triennial.

Down Иorth is an art exhibition made in collaboration between three art museums, the Portland Museum of Art in the state of Maine in the USA, Bildmuseet in Umeå in Sweden and Reykjavík Art Museum in Iceland. There, 30 artists show new works that deal with the changes that are taking place in society, nature and the ecosystem in the Arctic at the beginning of the 21st century and are largely due to climate change.
