» I’m a science fiction nostalgist. Because as much as I love the way every new science fiction idea makes us reflect on what it means to be human, I also love the memories the genre evokes. Dreams that may never have come true, but were simply wonderful in themselves. Adventures played out on other planets among strange aliens, unless, of course, they landed right here on our own Earth.
– Jakob Stegelmann

Science fiction is about new worlds, technological wonders, journeys through space, alien beings, and humanity’s encounters with the unknown. It is about the visions of the future we once dreamed of. In this pop-up exhibition, we invite you into the nostalgic universe of science fiction. Since 1989, Troldspejlet has followed the genre’s evolution in film, comics and video games, always with a keen eye both for what is new and for the stories, characters and ideas that have inspired it all. For us, science fiction is not only about imagining what does not yet exist. It is also about remembering just how wonderful it was to imagine it. A celebration of science fiction, nostalgia, and the realms we never stopped dreaming about.
