Olafur Eliasson: «Licht hat eine soziale Funktion» Der dänisch-isländische Künstler Olafur Eliasson lässt die Sonne auf- und untergehen, verschiebt den Horizont und bringt Schatten ins Dunkel. Der Meister im Spiel mit der Wahrnehmung betrachtet Licht weniger als Natur- denn als Kultur- phänomen. Im Du-Gespräch gibt Eliasson Einblicke in seine Arbeitsweise und stellt seine nächste grosse Intervention im Kunsthaus Zug vor.
