Abstract
The completion of Future Library is 96 years away. Future Library is an artwork conceived by the Scottish artist Katie Paterson (born 1981), who explores time-related phenomena and paradoxes, in such a way that she has been compared to Italo Calvino for his Cosmicomics (Cosmicomiche). Future Library started in 2014 with the planting of 1000 Norwegian Spruce trees in a wood near Olso, which in 2114 will provide the paper to print an anthology of 100 books, written and penned year-after-year—starting from 2014—by invited authors.
