Ólafur Eliasson
b. 1967, Denmark
Ólafur Eliasson explores and redefines the cognitive and cultural conditions that inform our perception. Described by the artist as “devices for the experience of reality,” his works and projects prompt a greater sense of awareness about the way we engage with and interpret the world. In addition to exhibiting at galleries and major museums around the globe, he uses his practice to engage the broader public sphere through architectural projects, interventions in civic space, arts education, policy-making, and issues of sustainability and climate change.
