olafur eliasson's your rainbow panorama

I love the way that Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson creates and transforms space. He won me over a few years ago when he stimulated bright, brash sunlight in the middle of Tate Modern's Turbine Hall as a part of The Weather Project.

Now Eliasson has fashioned a rainbow over Denmark...that you can walk in and through. It looks absolutely gorgeous.
