A spiral-bound, perforated ‘calendar’ magazine conceived on the occasion of Gucci’s centennial anniversary. This 132-page hybrid editorial publication, designed to be hung on the wall or read like a magazine, includes a cross-cultural exploration of the passage of time for the year 2022 and beyond. FUTURA PROXIMA is brought to life over 12 months with 12 artists divining the future through their thinking and their craft.

Futura Proxima is a calendar curated for Gucci. But it is simultaneously a glimpse at tomorrow – a map of maybes and a fractal question mark of intriguing possibilities. In these pages, the extremes of utopias and dystopias dissolve, replaced by twelve polyvalent excursions into the near distant future. Exploring the speculative interactions of our human form parsed with aesthetics and architecture, literature, biology, and philosophy, it presents a non-linear loop of creative constructs for our physical and digital realities alike.
