The Collectivity Project
An installation by Olafur Eliasson

You are invited to build with Lego on the table.

Make a model of your dream-museum, or of how you think the future architecture in Oslo should look like.


From September 2nd to September 17th, 2006, Oslo is the stage for Olafur Eliasson's most recent installation - he dumped 3 tons of white Lego bricks on the square behind the National Gallery, and everybody is invited to contribute. The result is simply breathtakingly beautiful.

After September 17th everything will be dismantled and become part of an upcoming exhibition.

My favourite quote:
Is graffiti art or vandalism?
That word has a lot of negative connotations and it alienates people, so no, I don't like to use the word 'art' at all.


Well, yesterday he performed a new stunt, replacing Paris Hilton's CDs with his own remixes…
