Jonathan Fine, Director of the Weltmuseum Wien, will guide you through the special exhibition Science Fiction(s). If there were a tomorrow as part of the VIENNA ART WEEK. During the director’s tour, you will learn more about the background, goals, and challenges of the exhibition.
How do we shape a future worth living with and for all? Science Fiction(s) presents voices that are often excluded from Hollywood’s narratives about the future. Works by around twenty contemporary artists highlight different strategies for using science fiction as a tool for critiquing the present, creating alternative futures, healing and decolonisation. The science fiction film architects KAWA (current film: Rubikon) have created an exciting architectural environment in which the paintings, installations, museum objects, films, and games present the visions of artists and activists and invite visitors to immerse themselves in these different worlds.
