HVERFISGALLERÍ congratulates Reykjavík Art Museum at Kjarvalsstaðir on the opening of GUÐNÝ RÓSA INGIMARSDÓTTIR’sretrospective opus - oups and draws attention to the artist talk taking place today at 14.00 at #Reykjavik Art Museum - Kjarvalsstadir. There Ingimarsdóttir will discuss her works with Ólöf Kristin Sigurðardóttir Director of #Reykjavik Art Museum and Eva Wittocx, art historian, critic and curator.

The retrospective 'opus – oups' covers works by Guðný Rósa Ingimarsdóttir from a period of more than two decades, and is part of #Reykjavik Art Museum's exhibition series on current important Icelandic artist. In Ingimarsdóttir works she seeks inspiration from her immediate surroundings and experiences. During her career she has worked with diverse media such as audio and sculptures but paper has always featured prominently in her work. Ingimarsdóttir´s work is characterised by precision and is often hand carved, drawn in delicate pencilstrokes, stitched in thread or assembled from a variety of different materials. Ingimarsdóttir uses diverse types of paper such as carbon paper, graph paper, wallpaper and common printing paper, with earnest and personal results.

Guðný Rósa Ingimarsdóttir was born in 1969 in #Reykjavik, Iceland. After her studies at The Icelandic College of Art and Crafts in #Reykjavik in the early 90s, she studied at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Visuel de la Chambre in Brusseld from 1994 to 1997, and continued her education at the HISK - Hoger Institute of Fime Arts in Antzerp from 2001 to 2004. Today, Ingimarsdóttir lives and works in Brussels but takes an active part in the Icelandic art scene.
