Description: The long and fruitful career of the Dutch artist Kees Visser is closely linked with the evolution of Icelandic art in the seventies and eighties, when conceptual and postmodern currents were at its height. Visser's sober and penetrating approach has recently earned him a broad recognition in European art, where he is considered to be among the most interesting representatives of geometric and conceptual art modes. The NGI's exhibition gives a retrospective insight into the development of this protean artist. Exhibition: National Gallery of Iceland, Reykjavik, Iceland (06.09 -27.10.2013).
