An ambitious monograph on Olafur Eliasson's large-scale projects over the past 20 years, including hitherto unpublished creations as well as spatial experiments that no longer exist.
The first major new overview of Eliasson in more than ten years engages with the artist's ongoing interest in finding visionary shapes for abstract ideas. This richly illustrated publication presents a spectacular journey through spheres, tunnels, towers, walkways and archways, as well as pavilions and larger buildings realized by Eliasson and his studio since the late 1990s. Binding the spiralling dynamic of these works together are essays by renowned writers across a variety of fields - from geologists and historians of art and science to architects, artists and philosophers. Each work is presented through in-depth project descriptions, and complemented by Eliasson's own words. Produced in close collaboration with the artist and his studio, this special volume will attract collectors, art students and designers of all disciplines
Olafur Eliasson's work ranges from installations and sculpture to photography, film, pavilions and other built environments, and has been exhibited worldwide in institutions such as MoMA, Tate Modern and the Venice Biennale.
Contributing writers Alex Coles, Lorraine Daston, Carol Diehl, Eric Ellingsen, Timothy Morton, Molly Nesbit & Minik Rosing.
