With three unique locations spread throughout the city, the Reykjavik Art Museum transforms the Icelandic capital into a giant city-wide gallery.

Regularly updated exhibitions ensure there's always something new and fresh to see.
Wander the capital, and soak up some impressively distinctive art museums along the way!
The Hafnarhús is a renovated harbor warehouse which preserves much of its original architecture. Inside you'll find six galleries, with a collection dedicated to Icelandic pop-artist Erró.
In the Kjarvalsstaðir, you can wander the perfectly stylish gardens of a space specially designed for visual art exhibitions. See exhibitions of graphic design and architecture, as well as a sizeable collection of originals by Johannes S. Kjarval, after whom the museum is named.
Lastly, the Ásmundarsafn should thoroughly scratch your sculpture itch, with a museum and park featuring works by pioneering Icelandic sculptor Ásmundur Sveinsson. It's built in the artist's former home and studio – you can't get artier than that!
