Postcards from the future

Postcards from the Future is the inaugural exhibition of PoMo, Trondheim’s new

museum for modern and contemporary art. Opened in the city’s historic former

post office, the exhibition marks the first presentation of PoMo’s newly established

permanent collection, accompanied by prominent loans from national and international

museums and private collections.

Inspired by the postcard’s diverse views of the world, the exhibition unfolds

through a series of dedicated and thematic artist presentations. Each explores key

themes of our times, such as community, identity, material culture, historiography

and global interconnections. The catalogue is richly illustrated and features texts on

the 24 artists in the exhibition, complemented by new commissioned short stories

by renowned contemporary authors Calla Henkel, Christina Hesselholdt, Erlend Loe

and Zeshan Shakar, inspired by the themes and artworks in the exhibition.
