Amsterdam
Tolhuistuin on the IJ
The Free State of Amsterdam (26 September – 8 November) is about the future of the Amsterdam metropolis. This exhibition gives new meaning to the expression “Stadtluft macht frei” (the city air makes you free). Nine Dutch urban design offices present their visions on the future of Amsterdam, in nine large models for sections of the future metropolis. The offices were given a free hand to make their designs without predetermined rules or restrictions. Their models do not show plans or blueprints for the city so much, but rather inspirational ideas for the long term.
