Typography In Iceland: now & then+info
12 nov ➔ 10h00-12h00
The resident artists at vaga, Krot & Krass - Björn Loki and Elsa Jónsdóttir, present Icelandic typographic traditions; their peculiarities over time, and how they are reflected in their artwork.
The Icelandic duo has become known for their experimental text-based work exploring language: typography, words, and allusions. They reflect on reading in a broader sense and analyze the ability to share complex ideas and experiences through layered, patterned and marked visual codes on multiple surfaces - sculptures and large scale murals.
