[ISEA2006] Poster: Dennis Kaspori & Jeanne van Heeswijk – Face Your World

Poster Statement

During the first half of 2005 an unusual project took place in Slotervaart (Amsterdam), initiated by the Rotterdam artist Jeanne van Heeswijk and architect Dennis Kaspori. It involved the design of the Staalman Park, which, together with the Brede School which stands next to it, is to form the new heart of this neighbourhood in Amsterdam West. The point of departure for the project was not only to arrive at a design for the park, so that it could function as a meeting place for residents of various ages and cultures, but above all else, to bring this about with the participation of the future users, including children, students and other neighbourhood residents.
