Scaffold by the American artist Sam Durant is a combination of reconstructed wooden gallows (or scaffolds as they were once called) that were used in executions of significance throughout U.S. history. The Hague, as the 'city of peace and justice' is the perfect location for this work of art and platorm for discussion on peace, justice and the death penalty.

Last year, during Haagse Pop Week 2013, Scaffold hosted the concert Murder Songs on Scaffold.
