The fourth edition of the Queer Salon was held on 18 June 2024 and explored the garden as a queer sanctuary. In this account of the day, key takeaways were paired with some of the archival pieces put on display and photographs from a collective walk through the gardens of the Nieuwe Instituut, the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum and the Museumpark.
The 66th issue of Volume presents a set of architectural tools, that will help move away from a homocentric way of thinking and give more space to the wealth and complexity offered by nature. Volume is edited by Stephan Petermann.
