For his current exhibition project “Life“ at the Fondation Beyeler in Riehen (Basel, Switzerland), artist Olafur Eliasson floods half the museum with water dyed green. On the south side of the museum, all the windows have been removed so that the adjacent water lily pond now extends into the museum itself. Visitors can move around the rooms on walkways, and instead of paintings or sculptures, there are water plants (dwarf water lilies, shellflowers, water ferns) to see. The bright green water, which takes up most of the space, is infused with uranine, a nontoxic dye used to study water flow, to make the presence of the water explicit. The exhibition runs until July 2021.
