BORDERS moving to Baton Rouge.
Steinunn´s exhibition BORDERS will be opening the weekend of 1-2nd of April in Baton Rouge, Louisiana as part of the Ebb and Flow Art Festival which celebrates the region´s connection to the Mississippi River. It is made possible through the Baton Rouge Arts Council in partnership with Glassell Gallery and LSU School of Art. The sculptures will appear on the walking path along the levee and will remain for the next year. Baton Rouge will be the 6th venue for the exhibition. The installation was made from 2009 to 2011 and first exhibited in 2011 at Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza in New York City by the United Nations Headquarters. Since that time the concept has become increasingly symbolic in today´s agenda. http://ebbandflowbr.org
