Description

Dynamic Futures, the book accompanying Foto Wien 2025, this year's edition of Austria's largest biennial photography festival, engages with speculative future scenarios and examines how scientific and technological progress affects society through the lens of photography. What visions of the future are visible in historical and contemporary images of science and art? How do photographs and post-digital technologies shape our ideas of the future? And what ethical and socio-political questions do digital and algorithmic images raise? Exhibiting the work of 333 artists in 99 locations across Vienna, Foto Wien 2025 is a sweeping transdisciplinary field of experimentation between art, science and technology. Dynamic Futures captures the content and flair of the festival's many exhibitions, events and artistic encounters, highlighting photography as a window into the future, and focussing on questions of contemporary physicality as well as ecological responsibility in the years to come.Sprachen: Deutsch, Englisch
