Summary:
This book tells the remarkable story of a cartoonist who made his dream come true in a building made of brick, glass and wood. The well-known cartoonist Joost Swarte designed the new Toneelschuur theatre in the historic city centre of Haarlem completely in his own characteristic style. The Delft firm of architects Mecanoo elaborated his outline drawing and turned his sketch into a functional building. This book documents the unique and experimental project with sketches, drawings and photographs of the building, interior and many details. Henze Boekhout has recorded the new Toneelschuur theatre in a series of photographs, and Jan Tromp describes how the most beautiful theatre in the Netherlands was finally built after years of lobbying. Henk Döll provides a first-hand account of the unusual cooperation between artist and architect, and Paul Hefting writes on folly, play and utopian dreams, the elements that play a role in both Joost Swarte's drawings and the Toneelschuur theatre that has now materialised. The book is designed by Lex Reitsma.
