Olafur Eliasson’s Earth perspectives – the complete set
We are proud to announce that the cover of our new issue features a piece of art by Olafur Eliasson. The Danish-Icelandic artist is a vocal supporter of independent journalism and a campaigner for environmental issues and we have long admired his epic interactive installations. The cover is one of his Earth perspectives series, created as part of the Serpentine Galleries’ Back to Earth project which invites artists to create work that responds to the climate emergency. Below you can see all nine perspective pieces – simply click on the video to interact with them. Copies of the magazine are available to buy from our shop and you can read our interview with Eliasson here.
