Â
For more the a century, De Koepel (the Dome) of Haarlem served as a prison. The building is conceived as ‘panopticum’, with a circular plan, designed to exert a maximum of control.
Before the old prison gets a new life as university and cultural centre, 40 artists, with different backgrounds respond with sculptures, installations and performances to the building, its history and the transformation to its new destination. They explore new possibilities for this monumental heritage under the motto ‘Architectural Healing’.
