Art dies without imagination. The past, present and future have always been of interest to artists. This exhibition presents a systematic overview of possible scenarios of an almost perfect future, where the question is, to paraphrase J.Maddox: “What remains to be found out?”. Of course, the history of the future is not written yet and our present is certainly different from the future imagined half a century ago. Cinema and literature have often theorized about the future. In the film Blade Runner, which is based on a novel by Philip K. Dick, the future begins in 2019 with a world governed by codes of computer science and bioengineering.
