Together with the artist, the work was installed in 2008, since when it has bathed the façade of the VERBUND head office in yellow fog for an hour every day, allowing the square and the building to become a stage of fog, light and wind. On the façade of the main building of VERBUND Am Hof 6a 1010 Vienna Austria Artist Olafur Eliasson www.olafureliasson.net Current exhibition Information on current and future exhibitions of the VERBUND COLLECTION. Current exhibition Yellow fog by Olafur Eliasson along the façade of VERBUND Next slide Yellow fog For Olafur Eliasson, fog is a tool that makes it possible to experience spatial relationships and distances. He chose the colour yellow because it is particularly easy to see in the dark. Yellow fog focuses on the transition from day to night and subtly steers the attention to the change in the daily rhythm. The work was first installed in 1998 for the exhibition Light x Eight: The Hanukkah Project at the Jewish Museum in New York. Eliasson: "My idea for the potential of light or of the ephemeral in general revolves around how I can bring the communicative quality of a building closer to its function."
