Beautiful exhibits, technical explanations and predictions concerning the future of 3D Printing are all on offer at the exposition of curator Marta Malé-Alemany in the Center for Fine Arts in Brussels. The exhibition partner is unsurprisingly Materialise from Leuven, one of the founders of the technology.

An observation of, and fascinated by, the 3D adventure, to be divided in two parts, one dedicated to technical expertise and the second to the triptych of the “environment, individual and society”. These are two facets of an ongoing revolution, of which the progress leaves us breathless, but which also pushes us to question its promised advantages. The positive or negative impact of 3D Printing, capable of creating weapons or saving lives, appears as the leitmotif throughout the exhibition, which, besides showcasing artistic or technological prowess, asks a question which concerns us all: how 3D Printing can solve the challenges we face in our current century and how it can prove itself to be a meaningful factor of change.
