Reykjavík Art Museum Kjarvalsstaðir

Art museum · Reykjavik

"If you're an art aficionado, head for your second gallery, Kjarvalsstadir, located two kilometres southwest of Hafnarhus, a pleasant half-hour stroll through quiet suburban streets. Upon arrival, you may think you’re in the wrong place, but worry not, this brutalist grey building really is an art gallery. Frequently displaying works of Johannes S. Kjarval, Iceland’s most prolific artist of the 20th century, the variety of art on display makes the trip out to Kjarvalsstadir well worth it. When leaving the museum, spend a few minutes wandering around Klambratun Park, where the panoramic view across the city is second to none." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
