A new site-specific installation entitled
Life by the Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson has brought a literal flood inside the Fondation Beyeler, in the Swiss city of Basel.
For this solo show (now through July 11, 2021), the artist immerses the museum in a border-crossing investigation of our preconceptions of nature and culture. He has allowed an adjacent pond—a feature usually separated from the interior by a large glass wall—into the Renzo Piano-designed museum (with the architect's permission).
