Description
Book SynopsisAn illustrated journey through spheres, tunnels, towers, walkways and archways, as well as pavilions and larger buildings realized by artist Olafur Eliasson and his studio since the late 1990s.
Trade Review'It seems incredible that such a staggeringly inventive body of work could be contained, much less summarised, in one tome, but 'Unspoken Spaces' succeeds in being both thorough and highly accessible' - Aesthetica
'Unspoken Spaces is a rewarding read and the 'patchwork' of ideas and territories it presents echoes Eliasson's own open and roaming approach to creativity ...Texts by Eliasson and his team are complemented by sharply observed contributions from historians of science, art, philosophy and the natural world on subjects that define the Studio's research interests from molecular science, nature and phenomenology to ideas of space, time and motion' - V&A Magazine
'An exquisite monograph' - AnOther Magazine
