Miniature and Panorama offers a look at projects since 2000 by the firm Vogt Landscape Architects, Zurich/Munich, which is internationally active. With photographs, plans, and explanatory texts, this volume sets forth the intellectual foundation on which the projects of Vogt Landscape Architects are based. In words and pictures, it describes and illuminates thirty projects, organized according to the exterior typologies of landscape, park, square, garden, cemetery, courtyard, promenade, and interior. Among them are the exterior spaces of the Allianz Arena in Munich, various projects on Novartis Campus in Basel, and the Masoala Rain Forest Hall at the Zurich Zoo. The broad range of essays and articles by friends—Olafur Eliasson, Peter Erni, Hamish Fulton, Roman Signer, Olaf Unverzart, and Christian Vogt—expresses Günther Vogt’s conception of landscape architecture as a heterogeneous field combining a variety of disciplines from the natural sciences, the arts, and design.

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
The leading landscape gardener of later Georgian England, Humphry Repton (17521818), was innovative and prolific, undertaking more than four hundred commissions during his thirty-year career. Repton worked for a wide variety of clients, notably the dukes of Portland and Bedford, and on many kinds of sites throughout England. He also promoted his profession in extensive writings about the theory and practice of landscape gardening. This book examines Repton's career and work in the context of the changing human geography of his time. Fully illustrated with many previously unpublished pictures, the book charts Repton's vision of England, how his style changed and persisted over time and from place to place, how he influenced his profession, and how he fashioned a social identity for himself. Stephen Daniels frames Repton's life and work in terms of five domains: the road, the county, the picturesque landscape, the aristocratic estate, and the urban periphery. Focusing on the way these domains shaped Repton's career and how he in turn attempted to shape them, Daniels examines in depth more than twenty representative commissions that delineate Repton's social and spatial theory of landscape. The author casts new light not only on the work of Humphry Repton but also on the role of landscape itself in English culture and society.

Summary:
L'intérêt grandissant pour le patrimoine des jardins a eu pour corollaire, ces dernières années, un renouvellement des recherches historiques, qui a permis de le replacer dans le cadre d'une approche culturelle complexe, alliant arts, sciences et techniques. Dans ce contexte, il devient indispensable d'interroger l'historiographie, de retracer une certaine généalogie de la recherche, pour en comprendre les avancées, les aléas et les lacunes. Ernest de Ganay (1880-1963) fait ici figure de pionnier. À la fois amateur éclairé, poète de la mouvance symboliste et historien rigoureux, il fut un acteur de premier plan de la vie culturelle de l'entre-deux-guerres. Il élabora alors une œuvre importante où se conjuguent des analyses monographiques, nourries d'une profonde familiarité avec les jardins eux-mêmes, et d'ambitieuses synthèses qui reposent sur une parfaite maîtrise des sources. Bibliophile, éditeur savant de textes inédits ou de traités oubliés, il a établi une Bibliographie de l'art des jardins, travail resté longtemps inédit dont il légua le manuscrit, avec l'ensemble de ses archives à la bibliothèque des Arts décoratifs (Paris). Associant la réédition de cette compilation savante, qui reste un ouvrage de référence pour les chercheurs et les amateurs, au texte du Poème des jardins (1919), ainsi qu'à la publication de l'inventaire des "Papiers de Ganay" conservés à la bibliothèque des Arts décoratifs, ce livre propose un portrait intellectuel d'un des pères fondateurs de l'histoire des jardins en France.
