Jór! Horses in Icelandic art. Compiled by Aðalsteinn Ingólfsson.
The book Jór! – Horses in Icelandic Art paints a picture of the diverse role that the horse has played in Iceland during the rapid social changes of the last 100 years or so.
At the same time, the works span almost the entire history and development of Icelandic art at this same time, with diverse directions. This is a fascinating world that shows both real horses and symbolic ones, images drawn from Icelandic folklore, mythology and the artists' reality.
Aðalsteinn Ingólfsson tells this story in a very readable text and decorates it with old pictures, but especially with works of art by well-known Icelandic artists of the last century and beyond.
