Jules Verne. The boundaries of imagination

To talk about Jules Verne is to talk about curiosity, adventure and knowledge ? virtues that you can explore in this retrospective of the universal genius, and creator of wonderful and impossible worlds, and works in which the boundaries of fiction and reality are blurred.

Few people in contemporary history can say they?ve walked the line between fiction and reality more finely than Jules Verne. Best known for his profound influence on the literary genre of science fiction, Verne was able to intertwine his supreme sense of imagination and creativity with a vast knowledge of and appreciation for science, exploration, and technological innovation. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, The Journey to the Center of the Earth, and Around the World in 80 Days are just a few of his incredible literary feats as one of the most prominent authors of his time.

If you're a fan of the French creator, you won't want to miss this exhibition where you can explore the surroundings and elements found in his celebrated novels (earth, air, ice, water, space and time), and get to know some of the fascinating characters such as adventurers Manuel Iradier and Julio Cervera; film-makers like Segundo de Chomón and Jean Painlevé; Nellie Bly, the first woman to go around the world in 72 days; and pioneers of deep-sea diving like Louis-Auguste Boutan and of aviation such as Santos-Dumont.

Come explore Jules Verne life?s work and influence on the modern world at Espacio Fundación Telefónica in Calle Fuencarral, Madrid.
