Futureways is the story of an art exhibition in the distant future, the biennale of a future civilization. With humour and imagination, each chapter deals with the transport of art objects to the venue of the biennale, a task difficult enough in the modern era but even more tenuous in the imagined futures of the writers. Throughout it all, art, fiction, and the act of imagination are taken to task, resulting in a book that is both satirical and forward-thinking.
Conceived by internationally acclaimed artist Rita McBride, Futureways is the second book in the Ways Series. Subsequent titles include Crimeways and Myways, which include more than fifty different contributions by artists, architects, writers, journalists, scientists, curators, and critics who exploit and decipher genre writing with an entertaining and refreshing collective structure.
