Mr. Gudmundsson is an odd fellow. At variance with the rest of human kind. He is the lone figure in a bleak world. Sounds very Germanic. But I believe Mr. Gudmundsson is from Iceland. If he isn’t he should be given citizenship. Because his work seems to involve a kind of courage. The little man standing up to the cruelty of the landscape. He reminds me of Buster Keaton. His work is comic in its futility. The little man, just standing there.
