Feelings are Facts
This year, Olafur Eliasson joins Ma Yansong for joint project, Feelings are Facts, at Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing.
It reminds me of the Weather Project at Tate a few years ago, the Weather Project, again Eliasson marries the space and the art itself wonderfully together. The result literally envelops the viewers completely. The artificial colours created by the fluorescent lights, really confuses the visitors by the use of fog, as it forces you to readjust your senses in this infinite space.
The works are always something that must be experienced in person, if another work comes to your city, do take a visit.

Not sure whether this is minimalist work or just looks good on the site with the white background and clean layout… but thanks for the tip! There’s some real interesting work over at Eliassons site.
I do agree Artur, this wouldn’t be Eliasson’s most minimalistic work, however there are some previous works such as the exhibition at the Malmö Konsthall a while back, you can find some images here: http://davidreport.com/blog/200710/olafur-eliasson-exhibition/ at David Report. This just happened to be the most recent work now in Beijing, hopefully there will be more again soon sprouting up somewhere.
