Comprehending infinity: interview with Francisco Infante

At the beginning of 2026, the cultural landscape of Dubna was enriched with the first professional exhibition space: the JINR Gallery opened at the International Conference Centre. Its first project is an exhibition by one of the most famous artists of our time, a pioneer of Russian kineticism Francisco Infante. At the opening ceremony, he shared what it feels like to stand at the "gate of truth", why scientists and artists should not argue about infinity, and what question he would ask the infinity itself.
