Olafur Eliasson belongs to the generation of artists who spent the 90s exploring and expanding the boundaries between art, science, and nature, and their subjective and objective perception. Using fog, water, plants, and soil, he and landscape architect Gunther Vogt completely transformed the rigorously concrete and glass Kunsthaus Bregenz, pictured here in objective installation photographs and subjective texts by the artist.

About the Author
Olafur Eliasson was born in Copenhagen in 1967 to Icelandic parents. He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Art, and now lives and works in Berlin. He says of his site-specific work that iinstalling it elsewhere is possible but then it is an other piece for me.i Nevertheless, his work is represented in public and private collections including those of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Deste Foundation, Athens. Venues for his solo shows have included the Menil Collection; the Danish Pavilion at the 2003 Venice Biennale, The Museum of Modern Art, New York; and the Tate Gallery.
Eckard Schneider is the Director of the Kunsthaus Bregenz.
