Contact at Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris – Olafur Eliasson

Contact at Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris – Olafur Eliasson

2014

“Contact can be a greeting, a smile, the feeling of another person’s hand in your hand. To be in contact is to be in touch with the good things in life as well as with the difficult things in life. Contact is not a picture, it is not a representation; it is about your ability to reach out, connect, and perhaps even put yourself in another person’s place. For me, contact is where inclusion begins.”  – Olafur Eliasson

Collaborating with Olafur Eliasson is always exciting. For Contact, Eliasson’s artworks appear as a sequence of events along a journey. Photographing the space, you move through passageways and expansive installations and as you explore, you become part of a choreography of darkness, light, geometry and reflections.
