For his artwork at a 1970s exhibition, (graphic) artist Harry van Kruiningen depicted historical practices and judicial decisions from earlier times. Some pratices seem strange and cruel in our time, but some of the subjects are still current. The Nieuwe rechtbank (New Courthouse) is the ideal place to display these works. You can visit the exhibition from July 8 to September 27, 2024, from Monday to Friday 9 AM - 5 PM. Free access.

Stories don’t die. They keep living in us, like echoes that keep reverberating between the high mountains. "The Distant Word" is an attempt by storyteller Sahand to keep his father’s stories alive, years after his revolutionary ideals extinguished. Together with the audience he tries to imagine himself in the Iranian mountains, or in an old prison, or in a typical Dutch landscape. More information and tickets on griffioen.vu.nl.
