Since 1985 we have been holding architecture exhibitions and working to increase society’s awareness of the importance of architecture. Not only on the basis of the work of leading architects, but also with artists who take inspiration from architecture and provide a commentary from their own point of view. We ask these architects and artists to formulate a response to the immediate environs of deSingel, the many-faceted building and its complex spatial stratification.
Topical exhibitions
Retrospective exhibitions
deSingel publishes catalogues to accompany some of the exhibitions.
Some of these publications are still available.
They are on sale at the exhibition info desk during opening hours.
You can also order them from our online shop.
