Nordic Visitors Program

Juxtapose Art Fair’s Nordic Visitors Program explores how curators can support the artist-run sector. 

Through a combination of private tours, targeted networking meetings, and open exploration, the participating curators have been asked to consider questions such as: How can we reimagine the role of curators in this field? What kinds of resources can curators offer artist-run projects? What opportunities arise when we connect different actors within the art world?

This year’s Nordic Visitors Program invites six curators from Iceland:
Auður Jörundsdóttir (Director of the Icelandic Art Center), Sunna Ástþórsdóttir (Director at NÝLISTASAFNIÐ/The Living Art Museum), Becky Forsythe (Curator, Art Writer and Editor and Project Manager Exhibitions and Public Engagement at Reykjavík Art Museum), Dorothea Olesen Halldórsdóttir (Associate Director at i8 Gallery), Pari Stave (Director at Skaftfell Art Center), Erling T.V. Klingenberg (Co-founder of Kling & Bang).
