Erró and Art History

Hafnarhús

-

At Hafnarhús, works are always on display which provide insight into the work of Erró. The theme of this exhibition is art history itself: over the years, Erró has established a close and creative relationship with that history.  Erró is well known for creating his own visual world in his collages; and in this exhibition we see works in which he has borrowed images and fragments of pictures by some of the leading artists in history, such as Picasso and Léger. He also references the work of lesser-known artists of different periods.

In that way Erró may be said to write his own version of the history of art, through his works. Curator Danielle Kvaran. Programme
