Abstract

The exhibition showcases the Futurespective approach Foster is keen to present, thinking around 'themes of sustainability, anticipating the future, a belief that the future is better than the past'. Underneath the subheading Sustainable Futures, Norman Foster's introductory text to his latest and largest exhibition at the Pompidou in Paris states that the exhibition is "not a Retrospective but, rathei a Futurespective".
