Originally a hardware store, it was later converted into a municipal warehouse and first opened in 1983 as the "Temporary Contemporary." ๐๏ธ ๐ชฉ Olafur Eliasson: OPEN ๐ September 15, 2024 - July 6, 2025 Olafur Eliasson, born in Copenhagen in 1967 and currently based in Berlin, has created a series of large-scale optical installations specifically for the MOCA Geffen. ๐ ๐ This exhibition continues Eliasson's long-term exploration of light and color, geometry, and environmental awareness. It playfully interacts with both the physical and intangible characteristics of the museum's architecture. ๐ญ ๐ฎ Eliasson's installations interact uniquely with the physical conditions and atmosphere of the architecture, delving into the relationship between light, space, and perception. They challenge our habitual views and reactions to the world, embodying the artist's belief in the potential of uncertaintyโthat each artwork inherently contains an essence of "OPEN." ๐ #Art #LosAngeles #Museum #Exhibition #LightandShadow #Installations #InstallationArt
