The CIA.IS – CENTER FOR ICELANDIC ART is the platform for Icelandic 
Visual Art activities. CIA.IS promotes Iceland art by connecting the 
local visual art community with the International artnetwork. It 
enforces national and international collaborations in order to 
improve opportunities for Icelandic artists in their homecountry and 
to increase their popularity abroad.

Information on Contemporary Icelandic Art
The CIA.IS is the prime source of information for Icelandic artists 
as well as for foreign curators, collectors, journalists or all 
people who are interested in Icelandic culture.
The Center in Hafnarstraeti 16, 101 Reykjavík is open for visitors on 
Mon – Fri 10 a.m. – 4. p.m.

Visitors can use the Library or get basic information about current 
exhibitions. A selective videoarchive will provide additional insight 
into the wide spectrum of the Icelandic art scene. In addition to 
that, foreign institutions are regularly invited to introduce 
themselves and their work.

Website
The website <http://www.cia.is>http://www.cia.is is the window to the 
Icelandic visual arts scene. It provides the basic information about 
all Museums, Galleries and other Art Institutions and Associations. 
The included database UMM.IS offers an overall survey of Icelandic 
Artists.
Besides that local Artists can find here all necessary information to 
the CIA.IS grant program as well as important links to the 
international art world.

LIST – Icelandic Art News
LIST is the monthly online art magazine which distributes Icelandic 
art related topics. Its first edition will be published on May 14th.

Cooperation | Productions | Networking | Discussions
CIA.IS works on collaborative projects with both Icelandic and/or 
international partners. Our current projects include e.g. the 
cooperation with Reykjavík Arts Festival [Mai – June 2005, 
<http://www.artfest.is>http://www.artfest.is], the cooperation for 
the Icelandic Pavilion in 51st Venice Biennial and the responsibility 
for the Icelandic Pavilion at the 52nd Venice Biennial.

In cooperation with other institutions, the CIA.IS invites 
international curators, critics, art historians and scientists to 
Iceland, introduce them to the local Art Scene, and to bring their 
expertise to local Artists through lectures or for research.

The CIA.IS is the first point of contact for both Artists and 
everybody interested in Icelandic Art. With regular workshops, 
lectures, excursions etc. it brings people together and gives them 
the opportunity to meet and discuss, and strengthen the links between 
Iceland and the international art scene in contemporary visual art.
