Celebrating 47 Years of Experimental Art at The Living Art Museum in Reykjavík
As the year draws to a close, The Living Art Museum is reflecting on a vibrant period of contemporary programming while preparing for its next chapter. Known locally as Nýló, this artist-founded non-profit institution has shared its seasonal greetings with the community, expressing gratitude for the shared artistic moments experienced throughout the past year and looking forward to welcoming visitors back for new projects.
