Past Futures

Over the years, the International Exhibitions have reflected significant socio-cultural changes, often anticipating epoch-making trends and innovations in editions dedicated, for example, to Tempo libero (Free Time, 13th Triennale, 1964) and Il grande numero (The Great Number, 14th Triennale, 1968).

In anticipation of the 2023 centenary of the institution’s founding, the virtual reality experience of 1923: Past Futures recreates “past futures” and offers a journey through time to discover the history of the International Exhibitions. The diachronic narrative covers a century of the Triennale’s history, from 1923 to today, with occasional temporal leaps, in an engaging, immersive experience. Along the way, visitors can participate in the protests of ’68, visit the Palazzo dell’Arte as it was originally conceived and enter into the mind of the architect Giovanni Muzio.

“ We have developed a unique expertise in telling stories through VR. Our experiences have toured at festivals and art fairs around the world and we collaborate with the best technologists in the VR industry. ”

IL DUBBIO (EPISODE 1)

 

Nowadays, we tend to see doubts as weaknesses in our struggle to succeed no matter what. We would rather show off our accomplishments, confidence and productivity, especially in the creative process. Il dubbio is an interactive documentary VR experience challenging these assumptions and exploring doubt as a driver of creation. The journey begins in Leonardo Da Vinci’s studio, where users can experience a lesser-known side of the celebrated Renaissance master.

IL DUBBIO (EPISODE 2)

Il Dubbio is a VR library of artists’ doubts, an exploration of the timeless relationship between artistic expression and doubt. In Episodio II, Kenyan painter Beatrice Wanjiku reflects on the loss of her mother and how it has put in question her identity as an artist, shaping her work. The experience brings to light that infamous feeling that we don’t speak of but which often defines creative work.
