Naresh Giangrande writes: The Panama Papers were released last Sunday April 3rd, and 48 hours later the Prime Minister of Iceland, Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson, resigned. Icelanders are clearly angry at having been betrayed again, and what’s more important, prepared to do something about it. In this short interview with Tinna Guðmunds, Director of Skaftfell – myndlistarmiðstöð Austurlands / Center for Visual Art, East Iceland, she gives her perspective on how this small country of 350,000 people and two very large volcanos, were able to force their Prime Minister to resign in such a short time, and her hopes for Transition in Iceland.
