Thanks a lot for your kind comments. I guess the "star" is the colour of the wall's paint. Which doesn't exist any more---the wall has been repainted in featureless white. Pity.

Ahoy everybody

After a long work-induced hiatus through the spring and pretty much all of summer (such as it has been here in NL…) I recently began working with my photos again, and photographing, too. I can't tell you how nice it is to finally work with something tangible and creative as opposed to just reading and writing all day, which is what I've done until 30 June.

The main piece of news is that I have completed a photo project that I've worked on for several years. I thought I'd post a few photos from it here, but the whole project is live on my site at The Tribunal in case you want to skip ahead.

Towards the end of the ICTY's existence, which is where I worked from 2002 until the institution closed on 31 Dec 2017, I realised that that place would eventually be all gone. I therefore resolved to photograph it, as much for posterity (and the photos will hopefully become part of the institution's archive) as for my own need to have some form of closure to what had been a very large part of my professional career.

My idea was to show the great variety of this institution. At the height of its operation, the ICTY was frequently in the media and people's impressions of its work were naturally shaped by what they saw from the courtrooms. But there were so many more sides to that court, each of which was crucial to its operation, and most were never seen outside the institution. In fact several of the areas which I photographed were unknown to most of the staff members because they were off limits. Through the very kind support of the three principals of the institution, that is, the president, the prosecutor and the registrar, and the many chiefs of section and unit I was given access to almost all of the building on Churchillplein 1 in The Hague.

It's a bit tricky to decide where to begin but this is probably a good place because it's what a visitor would first see upon entering the building – the lobby. It was located at the front of wedge- or sector-shaped building and therefore curved. I've always found it very impressive due to the several large Doric columns and the vast marble floor. At the ICTY's heyday it was usually teeming with life as a result of journalists attending press conferences or people who came to visit the courtrooms or take part in guided tours. The court proceedings were streamed on the television screens, one per courtroom, with a 30-minute delay to allow for the possibility to redact the stream in the event something confidential was accidentally revealed. The 30-minute delay is an operational feature that all subsequently established international jurisdictions – like the International Criminal Court, the Special Court for Sierra Leone and the Special Tribunal for Lebanon – adopted.

I wrote it before at another place, but can repeat my thoughts about your project here once more. This is a truly outstanding work with a real significance. I strongly recommend to have a look at this documentary to everyone interested in contextual photography!

Seems you have done a great job, Philipus.  I think the ICTY as an institution really should not be forgotten-neither the values it stood for.
