Summary:
Presented by ETH Studio Jan De Vylder, Carrousel Confessions Confusion is a series revealing both the authors’ personal interests and the studio’s own pursuits in the form of confessions. Landscape architect Christophe Girot is the featured personage in this volume. Girot writes about his experiences growing up in England and France, and how the juxtaposition of the regions’ landscapes already happened in his mind, long before he had ever heard or studied anything about it. These contradictory aesthetic and cultural values drove him to study landscape architecture someplace else entirely – Berkeley, California, in the 1980s – where he found his own values challenged anew.

Le livre dresse un état des lieux de la santé des sols, de leurs potentiels à leur raréfaction à différentes échelles (mondiale, nationale et locale) et opère un retour d´expériences issu des travaux de l'agence BASE. Ces derniers témoignent de la nécessité d'un renouvellement des pratiques paysagères. Ils cherchent à mesurer la consommation de terres végétales, au vu de la raréfaction des terres fertiles et retrace le long processus de fabrication de sol comme un écosystème fragile et une ressource bienfaitrice. La nécessité de fabriques de terres selon les besoins métropolitains est interrogée, ainsi que leur intégration dans les politiques urbaines. Les expérimentations s'inscrivent au sein du territoire lyonnais, et tirent parti de la gouvernance spécifique du Grand Lyon, qui teste de nouveaux modèles de production de sols au sein d'une économie circulaire. Ces expériences dévoilent les prémices de nouvelles figures urbaines, de paysages en cours de transformation (appelés paysages productifs), jouant un rôle dans l'économie des ressources et dans l'adaptation au réchauffement climatique.

Summary:
In December 2006, close to Zurich airport, Opfikerpark was completed after a construction period of 79 weeks. Central element of the park is a concrete sculpture, over 500m-long, accommodating a lake surrounded by sandy beaches and a reed belt. The idea for the design of the park was the result of an international competition initiated in 2001 and won by Berlin practice Kiefer. As the second exhibition at gallery AedesLand, this project will be introduced in June 2007. Contrary to the usual approach, the exhibition does not aim to present an already completed construction but rather make transparent the process of creation and realization of the building project ‘opfikerpark’. The efforts and challenges to create a complex and outstanding structure, which were faced by client, planners, engineers as well as executing contractors, shall be recorded in a commented illustration of the construction work. Building sites are temporary production sites involving a multitude of disciplines and trades which need to be coordinated. The exhibition reflects the progressing technological, organizational and design process as well as the objective and subjective influences in effect and thus aims to convey a realistic image of the building activities. Photographer Hanns Joosten has documented the construction progress at regular intervals. His high-quality, large-scale images communicate the special aesthetics of a building site in all its diversity and affect the atmosphere of the exhibition. The whole exhibition space will be part of the exhibition, even floors and ceilings. In addition, a media installation explains the progress of constructing Opfikerpark where viewpoints of diverse disciplines and participants meet. The players get a chance to speak and express their personal perspective on the building process with spoken commentaries. How is a large park constructed? How does a building site work? What do you need so many planners for? And how do they work together? Based on these questions, spontaneous contributions shall throw a critical and ironic light on the expert discourse.
