ART AND TOURISM OR REFLECTIONS ON IT
I went to the opening of an interesting exhibition in the Reykjavik Museum. The name of the exhibition is WITHOUT DESTINATION. The inspiration for the projecT is the ever-increasing flow of domestic and international tourists through Iceland. Numerous contemporary artists and scholars have studied the complex relationship between humans and the environment in this context, and their research sheds light on the many factors that contribute to the tourist’s experience. Without Destination offers audiences the opportunity to explore these ideas through an exhibition where wanderlust, destination and the concept of place. The museum is also conducting a conference on the subject. Here are a few images from the opening.
