"Seven Future Gifts" (2008) by Mircea Cantor (born 1977) is an installation consisting of three concrete sculptures. The sculptures are arranged in a white gallery space and appear to be abstract, geometric forms, suggesting a futuristic design. The sculptures have a rough, unfinished look, which adds to their sense of mystery. The use of concrete emphasizes a sense of permanence and solidity. The work's title suggests a gift for the future, yet the forms are enigmatic and unclear, leaving the viewer to contemplate their meaning. The sculptures' presence within a gallery space highlights the interplay between art and architecture.
