Press Release

ICELAND – IN DIALOG presents two different yet interconnected chapters – from the quiet processes of nature to the active interventions of humanity – in an artistic dialogue between three artists in Iceland.

Dove Bradshaw – Aske Sigurd Kraul – Sam Jedig

Three artists meet in Iceland in a joint project where nature, materiality, and landscape are brought into play in dialogue with one another.

Dove Bradshaw – Material/Immaterial

Since the 1970s, American artist Dove Bradshaw has worked with materials in transformation, where time, environment, and chemical processes alter the work’s expression.

At Kambur she presents the iconic salt installation Negative Ions (1996), in which a slow drip of water changes salt as material over time. She also presents works in Tufa Stone in combination with lava, as well as a piece from the series Material/Immaterial (2000).
At The Corridor Gallery in Reykjavik, the exhibition is supplemented with her early work 2√0 (1971) – a piece that challenges the notion that time and space can be measured precisely. Also on view are her Angle Paintings, which can be hung in twelve different rotations determined by chance, thereby emphasizing Bradshaw’s interest in changeability and indeterminacy.

Aske Sigurd Kraul

Aske Sigurd Kraul works with an investigative approach to the materiality of painting. In the project Iceland – in dialogue he creates a site-specific work at Kambur that interacts with nature and changes over time.
At The Corridor Gallery he also presents a series of paintings on canvas, where materials and pigments unfold in layers reflecting both geological structures and the rhythms of the landscape. The works balance between the painterly and the material, maintaining a dialogue between the physical reality of nature and the abstract plane of the image.

Sam Jedig

At Kambur, Sam Jedig presents works that directly challenge the landscape, including Brasse Cube – a serial progression of cubes placed in continuation, cutting through the terrain in combination with the landscape. He also presents a Smoke Cube performance.
At The Corridor Gallery in Reykjavik, Jedig shows his new Smoke Paintings together with works from the series Stamp Side by Side – Silenced, where he removes all superfluous information, leaving only the material – the stamp and the paper – as a quiet yet insistent image of repetition and absence.

The project is realized in collaboration with Stalke Out of Space.
