Press Release

How can time be represented and measured artistically? And how do we imagine and draft our future? With Bogomir Ecker’s Dripstone Machine (1996–2496) as a springboard, an artwork that is conceived to run for 500 years, this exhibition raises questions about temporality, sustainability and visions.

Throughout the first floor of the Galerie der Gegenwart, forms of combination and design of an exhibition are developed. As in an experimental setup, manifestations of matter, changes and transformation processes become visible. Formations and deposits of the temporal, their possible stretching and condensation between moment and duration are recurring motifs here. An artistically designed platform made of recycled museum inventory serves as a playing field for an international art exhibition and as a stage for a wide-ranging interdisciplinary programme of events entitled FUTURA: Future as a Way of Thinking.
