The exhibition title 《Wolfgang Flad: FORMA FUTURA 》directly articulates Flad’s renewed inquiry into the relationship between sculpture, time, and space. “Forma Futura” (Latin for “future form”) does not gesture toward a cold technological prophecy; rather, it addresses the sustainability and regeneration of organic life. For Flad, the future form is fluid and indeterminate—condensing the macrocosmic scale of galaxies and light-years with the microcosmic process of cellular division into a dynamic spatial present. Viewers are invited into a field that transcends physical time, entering a state in which subject and object dissolve.
This solo exhibition presents four new series, spanning freestanding sculptures and wall-based installations. The wooden sculpture series Structure intertwines timber and recycled media into hybrid formations reminiscent of bones and branches, balancing gravity and motion while harboring latent growth within stillness. The aluminum wall series Force of Impact subjects metal surfaces to erosion and indentation; polished sheen contrasts with rugged textures, staging an encounter among time, materiality, and self. The glass wall series Dark Side of The Moon evokes terrain shaped by billions of years of erosion. Through dual-toned glass, mirrored coldness, and flowing chromatic transitions, it reflects humanity’s longing for the cosmos and the return to self. The wall series Dust painting reuses ground remnants from sculptures, layering residual matter into pictorial structures—an affirmation of the indestructibility of material.
Wolfgang Flad: FORMA FUTURA is not merely an exhibition but a visual allegory of the future. In the Anthropocene, confronted with material excess and environmental crisis, Flad proposes a sustainable aesthetic through reverse transformation. Waste and rebirth are no longer binary opposites; fragments of past discourse become the substratum of future life. Suspended between presence and absence, these organic entities—seemingly from an as-yet-unreached dimension—breathe and proliferate quietly, inviting viewers to contemplate invisible currents of energy and to witness an ongoing, eternal becoming of form and essence.
