Look Into The Box
Olafur Eliasson is an artist who emphasizes process instead of final form in a lot of his work. This makes his art a perfect fit with the research of Luc Steels, whose work on the origins of language has always focused on the dynamic processes from which linguistic forms originate and change. Eliasson and Steels therefore collaborated on the “Look into the Box” installation. It was first shown at the Musee d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in 2002 and came out of discussions held at the Bridge the Gap symposium in 2001 in Kitakyushu (Japan) between Steels and Eliasson.
