Summary:
Hong Kong’s border with Shenzhen is dissolving. By 2047, the border will likely not exist. Integration with the Mainland will remove distinctions created by the "One Country Two Systems" policy. The uncertainty surrounding what will happen has created anxiety relating to law, identity, freedom of speech, and voting rights. Caught in this debate is the Frontier Closed(...)

Summary:
Hong Kong’s border with Shenzhen is dissolving. By 2047, the border will likely not exist. Integration with the Mainland will remove distinctions created by the "One Country Two Systems" policy. The uncertainty surrounding what will happen has created anxiety relating to law, identity, freedom of speech, and voting rights. Caught in this debate is the Frontier Closed Area, a 1951 undeveloped buffer zone of estuaries, fish farms, forests, villages and military posts. In contrast, Shenzhen, has exploded into a metropolis of 15 million plus. The book explores this unique border ecology. Design strategies inserted within this ecology promote alternate forms of development. The example widens the discourse on borders to raise critical issues that impact the contemporary city.

Summary:
Les Carnets du paysage présentent un dossier autour de la question de l’art écologique, plus précisément de la manière dont certains artistes contemporains en Amérique du Nord ont développé leur travail autour et à partir de la question de la nature et de sa préservation. Les artistes dont on présente le travail dans ce numéro travaillent avec des matériaux naturels, comme la terre, les roches, le bois, l’eau. Disposant parfois de vastes espaces, ils essaient d’en explorer les possibilités en prenant la terre elle-même comme élément et comme surface d’inscription. Ce numéro rassemble des analyses et des textes d’artistes, d’intellectuels et d’écrivains qui ont en commun de réfléchir à et d’agir sur ce que nous pouvons appeler notre environnement, notre œkoumène, bref la Terre, que nous ne savons peut-être plus vraiment habiter. Tout n’est pas paysage, mais le paysage est concerné par des questions qui touchent à la nature, à l’espace, à la représentation, à l’écologie, aux usages des éléments et des matières, à la poétique des formes. C’est cette dimension de l’identité du paysage que les Carnets tentent d’explorer dans ce numéro.

Summary:
Deep below the ground in Tucson, Arizona, lies an aquifer forever altered by the detritus of a postwar Superfund site. "Disabled ecologies" tells the story of this contamination and its ripple effects through the largely Mexican American community living above. Drawing on her own complex relationship to this long-ago injured landscape, Sunaura Taylor takes us with her to follow the site's disabled ecology—the networks of disability, both human and wild, that are created when ecosystems are corrupted and profoundly altered. What Taylor finds is a story of entanglements that reach far beyond the Sonoran Desert. These stories tell of debilitating and sometimes life-ending injuries, but they also map out alternative modes of connection, solidarity, and resistance—an environmentalism of the injured. An original and deeply personal reflection on what disability means in an era of increasing multispecies disablement, "Disabled ecologies" is a powerful call to reflect on the kinds of care, treatment, and assistance this age of disability requires.

Reyner Banham examined the built environment of Los Angeles in a way no architectural historian before him had done, looking with fresh eyes at its manifestations of popular taste and industrial ingenuity, as well as its more traditional modes of residential and commercial building. His construct of "four ecologies" examined the ways Angelenos relate to the beach, the(...)

Summary:
Reyner Banham examined the built environment of Los Angeles in a way no architectural historian before him had done, looking with fresh eyes at its manifestations of popular taste and industrial ingenuity, as well as its more traditional modes of residential and commercial building. His construct of "four ecologies" examined the ways Angelenos relate to the beach, the freeways, the flatlands, and the foothills. Banham delighted in this mobile city and identified it as an exemplar of the posturban future. In a spectacular new foreword, architect and scholar Joe Day explores how the structure of Los Angeles, the concept of "ecology," and the relevance of Banham's ideas have changed over the past thirty-five years.

Constructed Ecologies presents ecology as critical theory for design, and provides major ideas for design that are supported with solid and imaginative science. Margaret Grose presents wide-ranging new approaches and shows the importance of learning from science for design, of going beyond assumptions, of working in multiple rather than single issues, of disrupting linear design thinking, and of dealing with data.

Architect and philosopher Hélène Frichot examines how the discipline of architecture is theorized and practiced at the periphery. Eschewing a conventionally direct approach to architectural objects – to iconic buildings and big-name architects – she instead explores the background of architectural practice, to introduce the creative ecologies in which architecture exists(...)

Summary:
Architect and philosopher Hélène Frichot examines how the discipline of architecture is theorized and practiced at the periphery. Eschewing a conventionally direct approach to architectural objects – to iconic buildings and big-name architects – she instead explores the background of architectural practice, to introduce the creative ecologies in which architecture exists only in relation to other objects and ideas. This book is concerned with 'other ways of doing architecture'. It examines architecture at the limits where it is muddied by alternative disciplinary influences – whether art practice, philosophy or literature. Frichot meets a range of creative characters who work at the peripheries, and who challenge the central assumptions of the discipline, showing that there is no 'core of architecture' – there is rather architecture as a multiplicity of diverse concerns in engagement with local environments and worlds.

Entre découvertes et nécessaires mises au point définitionnelles, Bénédicte Ramade procède à des analyses plurifactorielles, révise les faux-semblants et affirme ainsi le caractère précurseur de cet Art écologique au regard de l'Anthropocène. Premier ouvrage à être dédié à ce mouvement, ce livre postule une histoire singulière et un cadre théorique essentiels à la compréhension des enjeux de l'écologie dans les pratiques artistiques actuelles.
