A progress through nine stages: the departments of Sign, Symbol and Ornament; Construction, Poetics and Play; Order, Craft and Practice. Philosopher and writer Dirk van Weelden will serve you as your guide, offering his reflections on the items on display and introducing you to the people we meet when we enter a room. Conceived and edited by Richard Niessen.
