October 28, 2025 – March 8, 2026 | Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo & Museo Nazionale dell’Automobile, Turin
News from the Near Future is a major group show celebrating thirty years of commitment to promoting contemporary art, curated by Bernardo Follini and Eugenio Re Rebaudengo.
Articulated across two venues—Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo and Museo Nazionale dell’Automobile in Turin—the exhibition retraces three decades of artistic research through a selection of works from the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Collection.
The Collection, which started in 1992, has had a close reciprocal relationship with Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo since the latter was founded in 1995, taking on the status and role of a research instrument. Today the Collection reflects the institution’s exhibitions, tracing a unique history of art from the 1990s to the present, with antecedents in earlier decades.
Within the Fondazione’s spaces, historical works are presented alongside recent or never- before-shown pieces, as well as an archive section dedicated to the thirty-year history of the Fondazione, through documents, media materials, videos, images, and artworks.
The section hosted at Museo Nazionale dell’Automobile connects recent art history with the Fondazione’s own development through iconic works from the Collection that emphasize diverse dialogues, lineages, and tensions.
More than one hundred works, created by the most representative artists from the institution’s journey, explore the development of different artistic languages and media over a broad timeframe: video and video installation from Doug Aitken and Steve McQueen to Ian Cheng; sculpture from Urs Fischer to Berlinde De Bruyckere and Andra Ursuta; installation from Tobias Rehberger to Adrián Villar Rojas; photography from Cindy Sherman to Wolfgang Tillmans; painting from Glenn Brown to Tauba Auerbach and Ambera Wellmann. The exhibition is not a chronological narrative, but a visual, affective, and conceptual archive, reflecting how the Collection and Fondazione were built over time through exhibitions, commissions, institutional collaborations, residencies, educational and training projects.
