Rome’s MAXXI Museum for contemporary art extends an historical arc over the connections between architecture, engineering and ecological, digital and technological innovation.

The exhibition is devoted to the relationship between architecture and the encroachment of technology into our working and living spaces. With the examples of unusual built masterpieces from around the world, the show elucidates the essential, far-reaching role now played in the collaboration of engineering-based and architectural disciplines in the building sector, and how this role has changed over the past century.
Developing from this spatial and temporal connection, seven university research centres from around the world present interactive installations and experiments to give insight into the future of engineering.
