Olafur Eliasson - November Flog Header.
1 Nov 2007
The Flog’s November masthead is a detail shot of the Serpentine Gallery Pavillion Olafur Eliasson and architect Kjetil Thorsen were commissioned this summer. Based on the principle of a winding ramp, the Pavilion explores the idea of vertical circulation within a single space.
Since the ephemeral piece will be taken down November 5th, I felt that it could at least grace this site for a little longer.
You may want to see more installation shots here.
In keeping with the tradition rolling, Eliasson will be collaborating with Louis Vuitton for the store Christmas windows. The piece, “You See Me” will be unveiled November 9th and will be on permanent display at Louis Vuitton One East in New York.
Eliasson is also having his first U.S. survey of his oeuvre at the SFMOMA with works from 1993 to the present and will feature sculpture, photography and large-scale installations. The exhibition will run through February 24, 2008.

I saw the SFMOMA exhibit and have never walked out of an exhibit feeling that i just experienced the funniest magic i’ve ever seen. I hope he has as many years as he does ideas. Definitely one of our greats…
