Copenhagen Opera Theater

While in Copenhagen I went to see Tosca at the Copenhagen Opera House. All aspects of the production were beautiful. I was really attracted to the design of the opera house itself that was full of artwork commissioned by Danish artists. Below are some lighting fixtures that were in the lobby. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work that must have gone into these. They were created by Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson.


Here's what they looked like on the inside.

Hey Amanda-
There is an Olafur Eliasson show at the Moma now and a sister show at PS1 too. Maybe we can check one out some time.
