Futurum is an association founded in Monaco in September 2009 with the aim of developing and encouraging “futuristic” events in the world of art or science. Over the years members have been able to enjoy shows, private visits to important museums, as well as to attend original ‘futuristic’ initiatives, always with the same objective: to discover and appreciate artists capable of associating their talent with innovative technologies.
