Art Olafur Eliasson

  • 09

From the almost primordial rising sun he installed in the Tate Modern to walk-in kaleidoscopes, Danish/Icelandic artist Olaf Eliasson's enormous, experiential sculptures and video pieces transform their installation spaces into self-contained weather systems of color and light. They are like mini-Bermuda Triangles, whose mysterious phosphorescence and meteorological phenomena play with our perception. As a special installation conceived for SFMOMA's unparalleled Eliasson retrospective, the museum's vertiginous sky bridge is transformed into a tube of swirling color.
