What to expect
Icelandic-Danish artist Olafur Eliasson invites us on an expansive multi-sensory journey to the edges of perception. Choose your path through a rocky, primordial landscape, navigate an optical puzzle, or envision the future form of our city.
This Brisbane-exclusive exhibition draws from the three-decade career of one of the world's most influential living artists. Spanning the Gallery of Modern Art's (GOMA) ground floor galleries, the exhibition will include important early works and expansive site-specific installations, many never before seen in Australia.
From the magical early work Beauty 1993, which suspends a rainbow in a veil of mist, to Pluriverse assembly 2021, a spatial installation that unfurls ever-changing reflections of light, Eliasson's creations come to life as they meet the viewer's senses and body.
Eliasson's artistic practice is grounded in the distinctive forms of his familial home Iceland, which will be reflected in a selection of photographs of the landscape, light and human experience of the country.
