On View:  3 June–29 July 2012

The exhibition project The Future Archive picks up on artistic research projects of the 1970s and 1980s from the environment of the Center for Advanced Visual Studies (CAVS), which was founded in 1967 by György Kepes at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge / USA. The groundbreaking artistic approaches of a generation of CAVS Directors and CAVS Fellows, such as György Kepes and Otto Piene, influenced by Bauhaus and postwar modernism, were ahead of their time. The Future Archive is an ongoing visionary project and shows how artists, architects, and designers in their interdisciplinary approaches adopt these historical standards and update them with new issues. The exhibition, performances, lectures, and discussions show the historical significance of the CAVS for interdisciplinary collaborations of artists today and fundamentally point out the possibilities that are opening up at research-oriented academies and universities and as a result, are consistently expanding our understanding of art.
