Architecture and the built environment carry within them the stories, values, and beliefs of the period in which they were created. They reflect culture, power dynamics, and political conflicts, alongside technological, economic, and ecological conditions. In the exhibition "Heritage of the Future," we ask not what the future will look like, but how our present will be read from it and what we are leaving for future generations. What role does architecture play not only as a physical force shaping the built environment but also as a cultural, political, and social mechanism influencing the way we imagine the future, interpret the past, and experience the present?
To celebrate the opening of the exhibition, we will host a rolling discussion among its four central themes, at the top of every hour. This is an invitation to look at the present from a future perspective and to imagine. Not in order to escape reality, but to challenge the obvious. When viewing the present as a future archaeological layer, even the everyday elements — the square, the sign, the station, the street, and even concepts like technology and progress — gain different meaning. Which of these elements will be preserved, what will disappear, and what will tell our story in the future?
The discussion will be held in English in the presence of the presenting architects and the exhibition curators Friedrich von Borries and Sabrina Cagle.
