GalleryBosom

Gallery Bosom was founded by the designer Tinna Gunnarsdóttir and the visual artist Sigtryggur Baldvinsson in 1996 and operated for two years. It involved an innovative exhibition format where a brooch was the venue for art exhibitions that traveled around on those who carried the brooch. Each exhibitor selected an individual to carry the brooch. There were 26 exhibitions, which are now gathered in one place. The project gained significant attention and praise at the time and remains, more than 30 years later, innovative and beautiful. It triggers conversations and ideas regarding the format of exhibitions, as heartbeats and mobility are, for example, qualities that traditional exhibition spaces do not possess.
