The Future Tense
The Future Tense seeks to challenge preconceived notions of the traditional static gallery space, delivering a rigorous, inspiring and engaging contemporary art programme to a discerning international audience.
Founded with the primary aim of supporting the career progression of emerging artists, The Future Tense works with a focused roster of represented talent as well as a broader cross-section of established artists via its curated exhibitions and events.
Beyond its core arts platform, The Future Tense also develops a range of highly ambitious special projects including the prestigious annual ‘RE:DEFINE’ benefit art exhibition and auction. Debuting in Dallas in November 2011, the event was established with the MTV Staying Alive Foundation and Goss-Michael Foundation and has raised almost $800,000 for the AIDS charity to date, featuring artists such as Damien Hirst, Tracy Emin, Gavin Turk and Shepard Fairey.
