Descrizione

Time Future looks at how the past continues to impact on the work of contemporary artists, and how memory is one of the great creative triggers. The works in the exhibition, whether they were made five hundred years ago or yesterday, reinvoke or reinvent memories and artistic practices. In common with the historical works of art in Time Future, the exhibiting contemporary artists share an element of alchemy, taking a material or form and transforming it into another. In its simple essence, it is creativity’s sheer magic that takes us to a new place, a time future. As TS Eliot wrote in The Four Quartets, “Time present and time past are both perhaps present in time future”.
