15-9-2011 Heart Strings


A sculpture by Asmundur Sveinsson, he was one of the pioneers of sculpture in Iceland.
Throughout his life, Sveinsson remained loyal to his belief that art should be for the people and have its place among them. He was called the “poet of the people” in the field of art and undoubtedly this ideal was rooted in his philosophy of life no less than in the traditions of sculpture. Most of his sculptures were conceived as works for public spaces, an integral part of their environment or designed for utility.
