Sýningaropnun!
Nánd hversdagsins: ljósmyndir eftir Agnieszka Sosnowska, Joakim Eskildsen, Niall McDiarmid, Orra Jónsson og Sally Mann
Við bjóðum ykkur hjartanlega velkomin á opnun samsýningarinnar Nánd hversdagsins sem samanstendur af rúmlega 60 ljósmyndum eftir þekkta alþjóðlega listamenn, þau Agnieszku Sosnowska, Joakim Eskildsen, Niall McDiarmid, Orra Jónsson og Sally Mann.
Sýningin er hluti af Ljósmyndahátíð Íslands sem er tvíæringur og stendur yfir 17.–26. janúar næstkomandi.
Verkin á sýningunni voru valin úr ákveðnum myndaröðum úr höfundarverki hvers og eins listamanns þar sem birtist djúp ástríða fyrir því að ljósmynda fólk á þeim stöðum sem standa því næst. Sýningin hverfist um þá hugmynd að ákveðin augnablik sé aðeins unnt að fanga með því að ljósmyndarinn byggi upp nánd, eftirtekt og íhygli gagnvart viðfangsefnum sínum yfir langan tíma. Verkin á sýningunni bera þess glöggt vitni hve vel ljósmyndararnir þekkja þá sem þeir eru að mynda enda er nálgun þeirra þrungin væntumþykju. Ljósmyndirnar sýna einnig hve viljugar fyrirsæturnar eru til að taka þátt í hinu listræna ferli. Traustið og skilningurinn sem þar er að verki jaðrar jafnvel stundum við að vera listrænt samstarf.
Styrktaraðilar sýningarinnar eru American Friends of the National Gallery of Iceland, Statens Kunstfond, Ny Carlsberg Fondet og bandaríska sendiráðið á Íslandi. Agnieszka Sosnowska og Orri Jónsson hlutu styrk frá Myndstef.

Exhibition opening!
Intimacies of the Everyday: Photographs by Agnieszka Sosnowska, Joakim Eskildsen, Niall McDiarmid, Orri Jónsson, and Sally Mann
We invite you to the opening of the group exhibition, Intimacies of the Everyday, featuring more than 60 photographs by renowned international contemporary artists, including Agnieszka Sosnowska, Joakim Eskildsen, Niall McDiarmid, Orri Jónsson, and Sally Mann. The exhibition is curated by Pari Stave, head curator for exhibitions at the National Gallery of Iceland.
The works in Intimacies of the Everyday were selected from discrete series within each artist’s practice and represent decades-long and ongoing preoccupations with photographing the people and places closest to home. The exhibition is organized around the unifying idea that certain images can only be achieved by close, attentive, and sustained observation. The works in the exhibition speak eloquently to the photographers’ intimate familiarity with their subjects and thus the intrinsic tenderness in their approach. In turn, the photographs also reveal the sitters’ willing participation in the artistic process, an implied trust and understanding that at times functions as creative collaboration.
The exhibition will be on view at the museum from January 24 – May 4, 2025. The opening is timed to coincide with the biennial Icelandic Photography Festival, January 17–26, 2025.
The exhibition is sponsored by the American Friends of the National Gallery of Iceland, the Danish Arts Foundation, Ny Carlsberg Foundation, and the US Embassy in Iceland. Agnieszka Sosnowska and Orri Jónsson received funding support from Myndstef.
