Consulate of the Republic of Slovenia Reykjavίk
Cultural cooperation
The country in the far north attracted many artists, also from Slovenia. Its inspiration is, among others, also seen in Ištvan Huzjan's art work.
In 2012 the embassy supported a performance of violoncellist Nika Brnič together with the quartet Inegal at Langholtskirkja Church in Reykjavίk, which is famous for its classical and contemporary music concerts, also by Björk, Iceland's most well-known vocalist.
Since 2004 the ties between Iceland, Norway, and Lichtenstein were strengthened also by the EEA and Norway Grants. The three countries launched the EEA and Norway Grants, a mechanism to provide funding for social and economic development in 15 countries in Central and Southern Europe in order to reduce disparities between regions and states within EU.
