背景

歴史と背景

Ásmundur Sveinsson born 1893 in rural Iceland, studied sculpture in Copenhagen and Paris 1915–1929. Returned to Iceland 1929 as one of the country's first professional sculptors. Built studio/home in Laugardalur 1942. Created 200+ sculptures. Died 1982. Studio became public museum 1983, joined Reykjavík Art Museum network 2000.

Ásmundarsafn presents works by Icelandic sculptor Ásmundur Sveinsson in the building he designed as his home and studio in Laugardalur. Sculpture continues outside into the surrounding garden, making the site as much an architectural and outdoor-art stop as an indoor museum. Current exhibitions, admission and opening hours should be checked with Reykjavík Art Museum.

物語と民話

The Modernist Building Interior

The interior of Ásmundur's building — domed ceilings, geometric spaces, natural light — is as much a work of art as the sculptures. He designed every detail.

The Sculpture Garden in Summer

Summer afternoons in the sculpture garden with monumental works among green lawns and trees are extraordinarily peaceful — one of the most serene spots in Reykjavík.
