{"product_id":"14833-olafur-eliasson","title":"Olafur Eliasson","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u0026quot;Don\u0026#39;t we get dizzy when our fixed images of the world start to teeter?\u0026quot; This was the question recently posed by Art Magazine in a report on the Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson. In his installations Eliasson addresses the physical laws and phenomena of the natural world. Water and light, air and color are among the basic elements in his works, which not only explore physical structures but also constitute experiments with models of human perception and our images of the environment. His artificially created \u0026#39;natural\u0026#39; phenomena - rainbows, wind, waterfalls, reflections and spirals - are both aesthetically and intellectually fascinating and subtle. With his \u0026#39;devices for perceiving reality\u0026#39; Eliasson very simply links reality, perceptions and represented reality. This publication presents Olafur Eliasson\u0026#39;s most recent output - works that continue to throw our perceptive faculties off- balance. A searching essay and an interview with the artist illuminate Eliasson\u0026#39;s artistic principles and explore his work in the context of art in Scandinavia today.
