Reykjavík Art Museum Kjarvalsstaðir

Some awesome art but had to subtract a star for the noisy cafe that’s co-located. East gallery was a little quieter, but the West gallery had doors open mid-gallery, would’ve been quieter if only the far doors were used.

Great art museum located in the park. The best part of the museum is that your ticket works for all three locations. On its own the museum is a bit too small to be worth the price but if you go to the other museums then it's more than worth it. The exhibits rotate so be sure to check before you go to see if it's something that interests you. Small cafe and gift shop located in the museum.

Nice art allthough I'm not a pro Their coffee shop has really large variety of food and cakes!

Although this was my least favorite of the three art museum locations, that's only personal taste. The space itself is massive and clearly a meeting point for locals to chill out with coffee and enjoy the sun (while it lasts!). There were two massive exhibits that went into depth on the local artists, which is all I really need. Not as gorgeous + inspiring as the other two though.

We visited the art Museum the last two days of our museum discoveries, 9 museums in 1 and a half day, and I'm very happy we did because it was quite interesting. Unfortunately only a couple of galleries were available to the public as the rest of the museum was under some sort of renovation but still it was a very positive and rewarding experience. I would most definitely recommend a visit to the museum.

Small but perfectly formed. The building is beautiful set in a park. The two exhibitions were interesting and meaningful. Very enjoyable visit.

Kjarvalsstaðir, a part of the Reykjavík Art Museum that houses the works of one of Iceland’s most influential and recognised artists, Jóhannes S. Kjarval ... who was a legend in his own time and one of the nation's most beloved artists throughout time! The exhibitions at Kjarvalsstaðir focus primarily on paintings and sculptures of the established masters of modern art. Presently a special exhibition, Eternal Recurrence, that contains selected works by Jóhannes S. Kjarval will be on show until 19.09.2021. The museum's building is a typical example of Nordic modernism and looks onto the beautiful Klambratún (garden) ...that you can see from the museum's Café, that is really nice for lunch, snacks or coffee with treats. There is also a Museum Store in the lobby as well as a lovely family-activity space, the Idea Lab. I totally recommend a visit. 👍😊👍

One of the 3 Reykjavik Art Museums to visit and pay only once to visit all three within 24 hours! This museum has a nice cafe to have a slice of an Icelandic cake after enjoying Kjarval’s abstract Icelandic landscape painting!
