Résumé:
This book closely examines 25 of Eliasson's books dating back to 1997, and reveals a whole oeuvre of artist's books—57 titles in all—that will come as a revelation to those who may not closely identify the artist with this medium. Eliasson's exhibition catalogues are always designed with pronounced care, and many are already long out of print or hard to find. Here, in spreads and thorough annotations, we encounter his considered musings on book form and design, and the complex process of book collaboration. Printed Matter also supplies a bibliography of all of Eliasson's books to date, alongside an interview with the artist.

Résumé:
Conceived by the Danish architectural offices of Henning Larsen, Harpa is a new concert hall located at the old harbor of Reykjavik. The concert hall and conference center are home to the national symphony orchestra and the opera. The entry façade, made of more than 1,000 polygonal glass units modeled after the island’s basalt pillars, was created in collaboration with the artist Olafur Eliasson. This publication presents the building from its initial design in 2005 to its completion in May 2011, and demonstrates how nature can help inspire architecture to dematerialize.

Résumé:
Really important artists situated their work in the master frame of art, well aware of the importance of the material they are using and conscious of questions about paradigms or paradigm shifts in art. This occurs in a special way in the work of Olafur Eliasson and is placed in full view of the observer by the exhibition at the Kunsthaus Bregenz. Eliasson uses nature and the architecture of the building as material : the result is an interplay in flux or a reversal of art and nature. In cooperation with Günter Vogt, landscape architect.

Résumé:
The work of the Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson (born in Copenhagen, 1967) focuses on sensorial perception, the laws of physics and natural phenomena. He works in a variety of media, but is particularly known for his sculptural installations for specific places. His use of light, water, ice and clouds in these spaces is a reflection of his Icelandic roots,and the complexity and diversity of his work have made him a point of reference in the current international art scene. Olafur Eliasson was awarded the Joan Miro Prize in 2007 for his status as one of the leading artists of our times. His work has been shown in major museums around the world. "Light Lab" was at the Portikus centre in Frankfurt and "Take your Time:Olafur Eliasson," a retrospective for the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art that was later exhibited in the MoMA in New York.

Résumé:
The Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson developed a sequence of spatial experiments for his Your Chance Encounter exhibition in the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, Japan. His piece challenges visitors to move around and get their bearings, and stimulates them to see the museum as a public space for addressing art and reality critically. The installations were developed especially for the exhibition. They are arranged in a tight context with the spatial structure of the museum and extend the concept of architecture by the Japanese architecture practice SANAA. Olafur Eliasson does not work only in the museum galleries, but also in the corridors in between and the adjacent courtyards, thus linking the indoor and outdoor areas closely and examining this museum’s unique qualities. The artist’s book was created in close co-operation with Olafur Eliasson’s studio. Its elaborate design with an extensive pictorial section offers a comprehensive record of the exhibition and an important analysis of this artist’s work. An essay by art historian Eve Blau interprets the exhibition in relation to its surroundings and contrasts the experimental approaches of Olafur Eliasson and SANAA, while curator Hiromi Kurosawa introduces the history and context of the museum in Kanazawa.
