The cinema of David Cronenberg<\/strong> offers one of contemporary culture\u2019s most unique, intriguing and powerful speculations on the idea of human evolution. Through the presentation of original artifacts, props, and sets as well as dynamic audiovisual elements, David Cronenberg: Evolution<\/em> draws a parallel between Cronenberg\u2019s<\/strong> own growth as a filmmaker and his ongoing examination of human evolutionary possibilities. Divided into three major chapters that follow the chronological and thematic trajectories of Cronenberg\u2019s<\/strong> cinema, the exhibition traces how Cronenberg\u2019s<\/strong> early fascination with the inner realms of body and mind \u2013 their drives, desires, and sometimes uncontrollable powers \u2013 develops into an exploration of the outer world that those forces help to shape. Immersively exploring Cronenberg\u2019s<\/strong> creative process, his relationship to science fiction and science fact, and his affinities with other major 20th-century artists, David Cronenberg: Evolution<\/em> celebrates not only one of the world\u2019s most acclaimed filmmakers but one of our most provocative and influential contemporary thinkers.<\/div>\n
