Summary:
During the summer months of 2011, the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst inaugurated a sculpture project on the grounds of the Froh Ussicht estate in Samstagern, Zurich. The project was inspired by Bomarzo, the famous Italian Renaissance garden populated with fantastical and monstrous sculptures and follies (i.e. buildings constructed primarily for the embellishment of a landscape). Artists Pablo Bronstein, Liz Craft, Ida Ekblad, Geoffrey Farmer, Kerstin Kartscher, Ragnar Kjartansson, Fabian Marti, Peter Regli and Thiago Rocha Pitta all devised their own fantastical narratives in response to Bomarzo. The Garden of Forking Paths enlarges upon this innovative exhibition with reproductions of installed works, and essays by architecture and garden theorists and writers on the history of follies and the interaction between art and garden: Lars Bang Larsen, Michael Bracewell, Horst Bredekamp, Brian Dillon, Patrick Eyres, Heike Munder, Anthony Vidler and Catherine Wood.

La Cité de l'Architecture & du Patrimoine a présenté dans ses murs du 23 mars au 24 juillet 2011 l'exposition : "La Ville fertile. Vers une nature urbaine". Un sujet majeur pour notre société qui pose la question de la nature en ville dans une perspective large, en abordant les dimensions historique, sociale, culturelle, botanique autant qu'écologique. En préambule à cette exposition, une introduction consistait en une série de panneaux retraçaient l'histoire du paysage en ville des origines à nos jours. Cet ouvrage très pédagogique et richement illustré reprend le texte de ces panneaux. Il offre un panorama complet de la manière dont les hommes, partout dans le monde, et à toutes les époques, ont voulu domestiquer la nature pour l'intégrer au coeur des villes.
