SEQUENCES 2009 runs from Saturday, October 30th until Saturday, November 7th 2009
The aim of SEQUENCES is to celebrate and exhibit contemporary visual art with a special emphasis on time-based art, such as performances, sonic works, video art, art in public/urban spaces, and to create a cross-platform for these art forms. SEQUENCES 2009 hosts a number of events in collaboration with art spaces, galleries and institutions in Reykjavik, exhibiting the latest developments in the field, involving a large number of Icelandic and international artists. A special emphasis is put on live events for this year’s festival which will take place at various venues around the city center
