re:future lab is a 21st-century art-based think tank, experimental laboratory, and a school of futures at the intersection of art, science, and society.

Since 2020, we have launched a multidimensional program spanning transdisciplinary exhibitions, symposia, workshops, consulting, and publications.

Our methods are based on artistic research and systemic thinking. Our practice is interdisciplinary, speculative, and process-oriented.

By imparting artistic intelligence, we help leaders from business, institutions, and culture to master complex challenges, drive ethics-based innovation, and cultivate sustainable relations.

We are based in Berlin, with affiliates in Paris, London, Chicago, Basel, and beyond.

How can art inspire business and social change?

Gesine Borcherdt, WELT am Sonntag

Creating a platform where protagonists from the fields of art and science join forces and deliberate on the question “How do we want to live?” is the proper approach to collaborating on ideas that make our world a little better and our thinking a little freer. An important leap has been taken in Berlin to turn visions into reality.
