Reykjavík Art Museum recently received as a gift more than 100 of Erró’s posters, including exhibition posters, in addition to the 137 posters that were included in Erró’s generous gift to the museum in 1989.
This exhibition is the first opportunity the public has to view a selection of Erró’s posters from the artist’s various solo exhibitions in his career of 50 years.
