How to be moved by art
Do you sometimes feel like you are behaving wrongly inside an exhibition?
"How to be moved by art" is a handbook* on how to reclaim the space of the museum through improvised movements and experiences. Dance Improvisation is a tool to establish a new relationship between you and the space you are in. Dance Enthusiasts invites you to playful encounters with the ongoing exhibition. Let's discover Gerðarsafn together.
*The handbook, created by Improv for Dance Enthusiast consists of 21 tasks in 5 languages (English, Icelandic, Arabic, Polish, Spanish) and is for all ages and all bodies.

Improv for Dance Enthusiasts is organising weekly dance classes in improvisation, contact improvisation and partnering, as well as dance jams with live music by local musicians.
We stand for inclusivity and transparency towards our participants and create an open learning environment for both beginners and experienced dance enthusiasts to share the passion for dance.
The collective formed in 2020 and is run by four foreign artists living in Iceland: Janosch Bela Kratz, Linde Hanna Rongen, Magdalena Tworek and Yelena Arakelow.
