Reykjavik Art Festival

Crowds were amazed at Iceland’s new Harpa concert hall, which reflects every shift of the sun’s light, at the opening of the Reykjavik Art Festival on Friday.  The Daily Telegraph called the opening an “Explosive start to Icelandic get-together” and explained that “Some arts festivals start with fireworks.  But only in Iceland does a volcano erupt shortly after the gala opening.”
