Sun Voyager Sculpture, Reykjavik, Iceland, B/W Poster
"Sun Voyager Sculpture, Reykjavik, Iceland, Black and White" by Catherine Sherman. This Sun Voyager sculpture reaches skyward in Reykjavík, Iceland. The Sun Voyager (Icelandic: Sólfar) is a sculpture by Jón Gunnar Árnason, located next to the Sæbraut road at the sea side. Sun Voyager is described as a dreamboat, or an ode to the sun. It was erected in 1990, a year after the artist's death. Although many have thought that the sculpture looked like a Viking ship, the artist said he intended it to convey the promise of undiscovered territory, a dream of hope, progress and freedom. The work is constructed of stainless steel and stands on a circle of granite slabs surrounded by so-called “town-hall concrete.”
