The exhibition Life by artist Olafur Eliasson is in continuous transformation. The exhibition has slowly started to emerge in March 2021 and will fade away in July 2021. Eliasson considers the construction and deconstruction of Life become integral parts of the artwork and can be observed by visitors from the park surrounding the Fondation Beyeler. Tarbaca Indigo Foundation has supported the exhibition, which is open around the clock and can also be viewed via the digital platform: Life.

The Fondation Beyeler is a museum of modern and contemporary art located in Riehen/Basel, Switzerland. Located in a large park with old trees and water lily ponds, it is considered one of the world's most beautiful museums. Tarbaca Indigo Foundation has already supported Fondation Beyeler in various previous exhibitions projects (see Exhibitions at Fondation Beyeler).
