Skáklist – 32 Pieces: The Art of Chess 

 

Published on the occasion of an exhibition at the Reykjavik Art Museum, Kjarvalsstadir (24 January -13 April 2009), this book explores how prominent contemporary artists push the boundaries of interactivity; explore mental states, real or imagined; transmute chess courtship rituals into heated intimacies; and reconstruct new identities based on the game via the deconstruction of chosen environments.
