Institution for the Future is an archive of ideas bringing together reflections by artists, curators, and other cultural workers on what an institution for the future should and needs to look like. Through pondering what an institution for the future might look like the contributors explore a rich array of questions including what the relationship between an institution and artists should be, the possibilities for institutions and activism, an institution's frame of reference and how it should connect to local and international contexts, the role of an institution in research and knowledge production, an institution's relationship to the temporal as well as spatial, and an institution as a way of being. Book contributions include drawings, critical texts, informal correspondence, found text, hypothetical proposals, interviews and diagrammatic explorations. - Cover.
