In this episode Malika Browne talks to art historian, author and museum director Will Gompertz about Olafur Eliasson’s unforgettable installation in the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern in 2003. Was it an exhibition in the strictest sense of the word? Or was it an installation, a happening or even an ‘environment’? It was certainly a landmark event in London that decade. Will worked at Tate at the time, and has fascinating insights into the exhibition and how it came about.
