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.

  • @hoomalumalu
    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.

    Can anyone tell me how he acquires his staff? What do they receive in return for working with him?
  • @skstan1965
    Bloomberg millions fund 'artist' = 200 person staff.

    "It's static but its influence on you is fluid" Well, so is a commode, however I would not call one "brilliant".
