The exhibition will present works by Czech, Icelandic and Norwegian artists, directly or indirectly inspired by what the group experienced during a series of three interdisciplinary expeditions to the subarctic regions of Norway, the brown coal basin in northern Bohemia, and the highlands and seashores of Iceland.

Frontiers of Solitude is a collaboration between artists and arts organizations in three European countries: Školská 28 (Czech Republic), Skaftfell (Iceland) and Atelier Nord (Norway). The project encompasses a wide range of activities, including residencies and workshops in each participating country, ending with an exhibition and symposium in Prague in early 2016. Frontiers of Solitude is funded through the EEA grants for Cultural Heritage and Contemporary Arts supported by Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway.
