THE CITY BEING explores various aspects of our modern cities, with contemporary Reykjavik as the main point of reference. A selection of works by contemporary artists and designers are put in dialogue with retrospective elements, tracing the imagining and making of the city across time.<\/p>\n<p>Natural, mechanical and social systems in the city are examined and in the exhibition&#8217;s urban living room, you can, for example, see how Reykjavik has been depicted in Icelandic music videos and browse through books about the city and urban planning. THE CITY BEING gives a poetic view on how we make the city and how the city makes us.<\/p>\n<p>THE CITY BEING will be on display until autumn and there will be a special program of events related to the exhibition. The exhibition is curated by architect Anna Mar\u00eda Bogad\u00f3ttir. Partners for the project are the City of Reykjavik, Iceland Academy of the Arts, the Icelandic National Planning Agency and Nordic Built Cities \/ Nordic Innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Arkib\u00fallan (IS)<br \/>\nB\u00eaka &amp; Lemoine\u00a0 (FR\/IT)<br \/>\nEinar \u00deorsteinn \u00c1sgeirsson (IS)<br \/>\nHildur Bjarnad\u00f3ttir (IS)<br \/>\nHreinn Fri\u00f0finnsson (IS)<br \/>\nJan Gehl (DK)<br \/>\nJ\u00f3n \u00deorl\u00e1ksson (IS)<br \/>\nKrads arkitektar (IS\/DK)<br \/>\nRagnar Kjartansson (IS)<br \/>\nSigr\u00fan Thorlacius (IS)<br \/>\nSigur\u00f0ur Gu\u00f0mundsson (IS)<br \/>\n\u00dati og inni arkitektar (IS)<br \/>\n\u00de\u00f3runn \u00c1rnad\u00f3ttir (IS)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>May 25th &#8211; October 22 | Daily 11:00 &#8211; 17:00 \/ Wednesdays 11:00 &#8211; 21:00 | Exhibition | 600\/ 300 ISK \/ Free admission for children under 18 and senior citizens 67+ NEW: Entrance is free on Wednesdays.
