Olafur Eliasson


Finally caught the exhibit at the SFMOMA (it was the very last day) and boy, am I glad I did! If this Icelandic artist's work comes to a gallery near you - check it out. It's very interactive and somehow makes you feel like a child again, just discovering light and the color spectrum and texture and well, everything. I went with a friend and our favorite part was a monochromatic room - basically the walls, ceiling, etc. were all yellow, but people and objects only came through in black and white. It felt very much like an old film. Here's a selection from the SFMOMA exhibit:
