  • Olafur Eliasson was born in Copenhagen, Denmark and it's where he still has one of his studios. The work that put Olafur on the map was the weather project, in the Turbine Hall of the Tate Modern in London, in 2003. It featured a glowing, half sun, that was reflected and completed by a mirror in the ceiling. Smoke and mirrors is one of his specialities.

    Wonderful but the brilliant and under-recognized sculptor Joan Brigham should be acknowledged as the originator and inspiration behind his vapor work.

    would it be bragging if I said 'no one has ever said "oh, was that a work?" about my work?

    I love Olafur Eliasson's artwork. He is incredibly hard working and thoughtful. I do have major issues with Versailles and everything it represents, corruption, suffering and elitism. Donald Trump would feel very at home there!
    If you want to save the environment, save the environment. Some shiny artworks created in a mega-art studio in a gold-plated empty palace that cost millions of dollars is actually counter-productive. A lot of air miles and hundreds of staff wages could have saved a lot of forests.

      But you can sure as hell bet that a lot less people would have seen it if it wasn't there. Get a grip.

      So what? If an artist said about his work: 'it's red and that evokes a feeling of warmth' (or something like that), you'd cry about how a red carpet can do the same.

      Actually, no. There is a lot of thought and sense in his works. You're of course allowed to not like it, even hate it. But you need to be precise in your criticism, because in the mindless way you tried to demean his work, you actually got defeated by it. :)
