Met:
Ragnar Olafsson

Shot in the Rocky Mountains, The End, a highly compelling video installation, depicts two musicians — artist Ragnar Kjartansson and his collaborator Davíð Þór Jónsson — playing folk/country meets experimental music in a frigid, lonely place. Both characters are dressed as northern, Davy Crockett-type frontiersmen, an extreme example of a stereotype that persists and contributes to the countless fictions projected upon the western landscape.

Artist’s Talk: Thursday, January 28, 4 p.m.
