The Future of the Art is Urban - Artistic Research Practices and Methods in Social Sciences blends the borders between art and social science. It presents a wide range of different social research practices in which knowledge is produced through artistic approaches. Participants use the city as a site for artistic research and experimentation; of confrontation and interaction.The exhibition discovers how visual researchers unfold and reveal the implicit aspects of the social in the urban space. Practices and processes of artful social research become alternative models of thinking and knowing.

In an Urban Game session by Viktor Bedö participants will play a smartphone – based game in the urban space around the gallery, and discuss urban game design as prototyping and mapping tool for urban design and research.
Talks by academics Michael Guggenheim, Bernd Kräftner, Nirmal Puwar, Alex Rhys-Taylor, Alison Rooke and Monica Sassatelli will explore key themes of the exhibition: the intertwining of aesthetics and city life, the politics of art in the city, artful methods in sociology, and bringing science into urban space.
