BAROQUE BAROQUE

BAROQUE BAROQUE is an ambitious venture that brings together and reconnects some of Eliasson’s most distinguished works from the private holdings of TBA21 and the Juan and Patricia Vergez Collection. The overview of artworks from two decades of Eliasson’s artistic practice explores the affinities between his work and the extraordinary baroque setting of the Belvedere’s Winter Palace of Prince Eugene of Savoy in Vienna. Alongside these works, new site-specific interventions activate and articulate the historical ensemble, establishing a dialogue between the volubility of the baroque architecture and the modulating perception provided by Eliasson’s artworks.
