The Factory art exhibition will be held in the old fish factory in Djúpavík from June 1 to August 31, 2018. The focal point of the group show is to explore the artists’ personal relation to, and perception of, Iceland. This year The Factory is hosting 16 international artists/artist groups.
As a multidisciplinary exhibit, The Factory showcases a multitude of visual arts, including but not limited to: photography, paintings, sound, mixed media, video art and installations. This fosters a diverse and dynamic show, welcoming a broad audience. By building a bridge between the old herring factory in Djúpavík and new contemporary art, the building will gain a modern and attractive aura. The goal is to support the community and the artists – and honour Iceland and its inspiring influence on people via art and culture.
