Olafur Eliasson - Born in Copenhagen in 1967, Eliasson is considered one of his generation’s most influential artists. Throughout his career, he has taken inspiration from natural elements and phenomena, such as light, wind, fog and water to create sculpture and installations that evoke sensory experiences. The installation will bring nature into the urban cityscape and will add a striking element to New York City’s iconic skyline.
