Studio Olafur Eliasson - Open House is one of Eliasson's contributions to the Venice Biennale 2017. The artist's book is the seventh volume in the studio's TYT [Take Your Time] series. This self-portrait of the studio gives an idea of how Eliasson's artworks are made and thought about before they enter museums, collections, public space, and the world. In doing so, the publication reverses the relationship between final artworks and artistic processes and includes conversations with many members of the studio team, texts by friends of the studio, and quotes from texts and books that inspire the studio's current research.

An arresting volume to commemorate Olafur Eliasson’s latest work of installation art, featuring lush illustrations and unique insights from participating writers, photographers, and artists One of the most wide-ranging and ambitious creative minds of his generation, Icelandic-Danish artist Olafur Eliasson has produced a dizzying spectrum of work around the world. Perhaps best known in the United States for his 2008 New York City Waterfalls installation, his constant inventiveness and public projects have entranced huge numbers of people. Working in a variety of fields and media, there is no end to his creative ambition and the delight his works elicit. The title of the book and accompanying exhibition refers to the glaciers that formed the landscape around the installation’s site in Denmark, their traces still evident in the site’s topography and geology. The project does not end at the property boundaries, but incorporates the entire surrounding landscape. Five mirrors, ranging from a perfect circle to elongated ellipses, reflect the changing sky above and the contemplator’s own gaze as though in the surfaces of glacial pools. This publication offers a unique and highly detailed insight, captured over the course of four seasons, of this singular landscape. Working with geologists, landscape architects, and other specialists, Eliasson has created an outdoor space only a privileged few will ever see. This publication documents and enhances the work through photographs, essays, and collaborators who render the power of the project in images and words.

A masterful work of storytelling, a unique sculptural object created through a collaborative process between Visual Editions and author. A curiosity with the die-cut technique was combined with the pages' physical relationship to one another and how this could somehow be developed to work with a meaningful narrative. This led to Jonathan deciding to use an existing piece of text and cut a new story out of it - his favourite book, The Street of Crocodiles by Bruno Schulz. Writing, cutting and proto-typing has created a new story cut from the words of an old favourite.
