Summary:
One of the difficulties about reexamining the subject of realism lies in the passage from the initial idea of magical realism to the concept of new objectivity. Actually it is possible to return to the initial notion, elaborating the concept of marvelous reality which with that idea of a mixture of the real and the fantastic seeks to maintain something of the heroic and(...)

Summary:
One of the difficulties about reexamining the subject of realism lies in the passage from the initial idea of magical realism to the concept of new objectivity. Actually it is possible to return to the initial notion, elaborating the concept of marvelous reality which with that idea of a mixture of the real and the fantastic seeks to maintain something of the heroic and the sublime. The realistic way of preserving the sublime that, in defiance of the 'real' world, succeeds in living that illusion: this is the direction in which we want to interpret the symptoms of a return of the real in architecture. In short magical realism does not make us long for normality, but invites us to look beyond every norm hidden by conventions.

Summary:
Amsterdam-based landscape architect Michael van Gessel has been working with, rather than against, nature for the past three decades. He expresses his ethos by quoting the English author and landscape architect Joseph Spence: "Respect for the past, combined with a curiosity for what is and a feeling for what could be. This is the dynamo that starts the engine of the design." Accordingly, van Gessel embraces a diversity of projects, from private gardens to urban planning. He supervised the renovation of Amsterdam's Vondel Park, drew up the master plan to restore the landscaping around Utretch's Castle De Haar and managed to integrate the inner courtyards of the Ministry of Agriculture in The Hague into the urban fabric. This comprehensive volume places van Gessel's myriad approaches into context and illuminates his pivotal role in the formation of contemporary Dutch landscape architecture.

This edition is by far the largest we have produced to date, and features over 360 color renderings by 46 top illustrators, a foreword by Alan Ritchie of Philip Johnson/Alan Ritchie Architects, and contact information for each artist. The illustrators featured in the NYSR Portfolio represent a broad array of styles and techniques; from traditional media such as watercolor and gouache, to digital renderings, to hybrid renderings that combine computer and hand work. As a design professional, you know that renderings are often the most public face of your project prior to construction.

It takes us from men in bowler hats with stout ropes nonchalantly crawling over crevasses, through the gilded age of grand hotels and sleigh rides, to the modernist concrete infrastructure of mountaintop restaurants and cable-car stations. These postcards frame the changing way we’ve experienced landscape and leisure over more than a hundred years – from the intrepid to the banal, sublime to ridiculous and brutalist to kitsch. And postcards travel through time as well as space, and they arrive with messages from our former selves. Underlying the Alpenkitsch is a serious exposé of our relationship to nature and how we have carelessly misused the beauties of the natural world.

Yet revulsion to dirtiness is more than a protective mechanism. Introducing uncleanliness in design can be revolutionary or revelatory.

But becoming too aware of all the filth produced by the profession can tempt us to impose sanitary barriers and refuse to get our hands dirty.
