Conference | The Architecture of Confinement

The Architecture of Confinement

April 14, 2022, James Stewart Film Theater, Princeton University

The Conference, The Architecture of Confinement, taking place on April 14 in the James Stewart Film Theater, will explore the conception and materialization of spaces of confinement.  Engaging speakers in a cross-disciplinary conversation, this event will bring together scholars from history, law, and politics, as well as architects, designers, survivors, activists, and artists. Where to locate the architecture of confinement? In what ways does time manifest itself through an experience of confinement? How is care conceived? How do individuals experience a space of confinement? Such questions on site, time, care, and the individual frame this one-day conference.
Through this interactive conference they shall open new perspectives on the effects and features of the architecture of confinement.

The conference will take place as an in-person event on Princeton Campus.
