Olafur Eliasson

Visual artist Olafur Eliasson grew up in Iceland and Denmark. In 1995, he founded Studio Olafur Eliasson in Berlin, which today comprises a team of craftsmen, architects, archivists, researchers, administrators, cooks, art historians, and specialised technicians. Natural phenomena – such as water, light, ice, fog, and reflections – feature prominently in Eliasson’s often-large-scale artworks.
