What might a future anthropologist and archaeologist be faced with? In 1998 Adrian Tranquilli replied to this question with "Futuro Imperfetto", a cycle of works contrasting different religious and scientific mythologies in a playfully disturbing way. The same genial inventor of these chimeras now tells us his story ironically and candidly in this book, and explains how he always tries to look beyond the substance of things, forcing the eye to look in many different directions at once. Sources of inspiration are "Superman" and "2001 Space Odyssey", Bernini's "The Ectasy of Saint Teresa" and "Batman", "Alien" and "Spiderman".
