Review: Ragnar Kjartansson’s The Visitors

The installation’s slow spatial choreography rewards patience, revealing connections among performers only as the piece nears its end.

A barefoot woman with long brown hair plays a cello in a dimly lit hallway, wearing headphones and sitting on a cushioned chair, surrounded by rugs, lamps and heavy drapery—another scene from The Visitors.

Ragnar Kjartansson’s The Visitors is on view at SFMOMA through September 28, 2025.
