Main venue and CircuitoFutura
ArtFutura contains conferences, workshops, exhibitions, live shows and an audiovisual program which includes the latest novelties in digital creativity.
Much of the ArtFutura content is developed in Barcelona and Madrid although connections by means of video conferences are established with other cities in which the festival is held.
GaleriaFutura is the division of ArtFutura destined to the exhibitions of digital art.
One of its most important projects was the "Souls&Machines" ( Máquinas&Almas) exhibit that was presented at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, Spain and curated by Montxo Algora and José Luis de Vicente.
