FUTURE NOW? Looking into the future through the eyes of art and creativity. 2025, January 16 - February 28
What does the future mean? When does it begin, and what might it look like? To seek answers, you would need an oracle—an invitation our exhibition extends to you. Ask the oracle your question and embark on a journey to expand your imagination of the “presents” and “futures” that could be.
Step into a space where time layers intertwine, where historical and contemporary perspectives meet. Immerse yourself in otherworldly visions and reflect on your own in the mirror of art.
Experience the future through four distinct artistic approaches: participatory, immersive, historical, and contemporary. Marvel at the fusion of art, science and technology as seen from diverse vantage points.
Come and be a part of this thought-provoking exhibition. See the future. Shape it.
