Future Show

Future Show, 2010, Cruise & Callas, Berlin

Future Show is an ongoing investigation into objects of art that have vanished from the field of vision. These objects were once housed within the original Future Show in New York’s Museum of Non-Objective Art from November to December of 1948. It was an era when movements in modern art confronted the new perceptual management of modern life with corresponding visions. These lost objects have been reconstructed for the exhibition.
