We imagine the future with the new exhibition at the EDF Group Foundation
From fake news to travel and embracing simplicity, the EDF Group Foundation aims to showcase themes that touch us all in its 7th arrondissement venue, in a world that’s always changing. This time, the foundation explores our relationship with the future through What the Horizon Promises, an exhibition combining beliefs, scientific knowledge, and artistic creation. About twenty artists have come together for this occasion, all engaged to present their interpretation of the future and its stakes, in a space divided into three themes: “certainty and uncertainty,” “magic and science,” and lastly, “lib..."Re arbiter." The little extra? At the entrance of the exhibition, you'll get to join an interactive experience that invites you to share your vision of the future in 2100. The collected information will be used for a sociological study.
