Land of the future and fantastic technologies: animation from China at the exposition "Legacy for the Future"

---

At the National Centre RUSSIA, a unique exposition of young artists continues to captivate visitors. "Legacy for the Future" offers an opportunity to explore paintings, photographs, art objects, and sculptures from Russia, China, India, Brazil, Ethiopia, and Iran. It also showcases extraordinary animated films created using computer graphics and artificial intelligence. For this exposition, students from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute and the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou provided their innovative works.

The animated pieces presented in the exposition's cinema hall explore themes of the future, space, science, and technology. For instance, the creators of the project "Salamander" delve into the interaction between robots and humans, addressing significant ethical issues in their visually striking work. Meanwhile, the animation "Genesis," created with the assistance of neural networks, immerses viewers in a space of illusions between life and death.

Another remarkable animated film, "In Search of the Quantum World," was created through a collaboration between Chongqing University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This is an impressive presentation that tells about the country's technological achievements and scientific experiments using computer graphics.

One of the most touching projects is the short film "Eyes," which tells the story of an extraordinary reunion between a father and daughter in a distant future, on a version of Earth that has long ceased to exist as we know it.

"Legacy for the Future" is a large-scale project by the National Centre RUSSIA, promoting the idea of multinational dialogue about the future of the world, with humanity at its core. The exposition consists of the works by young artists who reflect on the present, express their attitude towards past events, and contemplate the future in their art.

Visitors to the National Centre can explore the exposition independently or join free guided tours, available in 30-minute or one-hour formats. Registration is available on the website under the "Events" section.
