For two weeks the Markthalle will host <Kunstschlager>, a group of young experimental artists from Reykjavík, who, inspired by everyday interactions, create artistic environments and experiences with «found» objects. An <art factory> will be built, acting itself as art, while simultaneously allowing new art to be produced and consumed. The artist collective is a shining example of the impressive and independent art spaces in Reykjavík, that are thriving despite decreasing support for culture in the wake of the financial crisis. With its industrial charm the Markthalle offers an ideal setting for visitors to gain a new experience in a familiar surrounding.
