2021 INLNA Virtual Convention Program Announced

JOIN US FOR OUR 2021 INLNA CONVENTION ON SATURDAY, MAY 15TH FROM 10 AM - 5 PM CST.

Once again, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has forced us to hold our annual general meeting online, but this year we are lining up a fuller program with a gathering celebration, short presentations with question-and-answer periods, an awards ceremony, informal breakout rooms, and our required business meeting.

Breaks will be scheduled so that participants don’t have to sit in front of their computers all day and some events will be recorded for later viewing through YouTube and Facebook.

Ragnar Kjartansson: Death Is Elsewhere

Provided by Signy McInnis

The Canada Iceland Foundation Inc. ( CIFI ) has given a grant to the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in support of their current exhibition of Ragnar Kjartansson, Death is Elsewhere. This is a non-narrative, visually immersive art installation comprised of seven large screens which surround the viewer with scenes filmed during one of Iceland's light summer nights, accompanied by durational music. This piece opened at the AGO on November 7 for a one year run. Although the AGO is now temporarily closed due to the pandemic lockdown, a segment of the piece can be viewed on the AGO website. Ragnar Kjartansson is an internationally known Icelandic artist living in Reykjavik.
