2016

Kristín is one of the authors (along with Unnur Dís Skaptadóttir) of the exhibition Iceland in the World and the World in Iceland, 2016–2017. The exhibition was part of Kristín's research project Icelandic Identity in the Crisis, supported by the Research Fund of the University of Iceland and The Icelandic Centre for Research. The exhibition's main goal was to shed light on transnationalism as a part of both Iceland's history and present and to highlight how Icelanders have for centuries been part of history's racial prejudices in Europe. The exhibition was done in collaboration with other scholars at the University of Iceland and in collaboration with Iceland's National Museum. The exhibition's emphasis on racism built on Kristín's research on the republication of the book Negroboys.
