Guomundur Guomundsson, who later took the pseudonym Erró, was born in Olafsvik (Iceland) in 1932.
From the age of ten, he was fascinated by the works of art reproduced in a catalog of the Museum of Modern Art in New York: painting became his great passion. He studied art (1949-1956) in Reykjavik, then in Oslo and in Italy (Florence and Ravenna).
In 1958, the young artist moved to Paris, where he met artists and writers linked to the surrealist movement, such as Breton, Roberto Matta, Victor Brauner, André Masson, Max Ernst, Man Ray, Joan Miró and Duchamp. His artistic production has been extremely varied: Erró paints, is interested in graphic arts, writes works, creates sets for cinema or makes films. The artist often works in series and in a provocative way, his plastic universe mixes comic book characters with figures of despots. In 1989, Erro donated an important collection of personal works and archives to the Reykjavík Art Museum
After his first solo exhibition organized in Milan in 1956, Erró participated in hundreds of exhibitions and his works are today present in the major museums of the world, such as the Pompidou Center in Paris.
