Summary:
"The great purpose of landscape art is to make us at home in our own country" was the nationalist maxim motivating the Group of Seven's artistic project. The empty landscape paintings of the Group played a significant role in the nationalization of nature in Canada, particularly in the development of ideas about northernness, wilderness, and identity. In this book, John O'Brian and Peter White pick up where the Group of Seven left off. They demonstrate that since the 1960s a growing body of both art and critical writing has looked "beyond wilderness" to re-imagine landscape in a world of vastly altered political, technological, and environmental circumstances. By emphasizing social relationships, changing identity politics, and issues of colonial power and dispossession contemporary artists have produced landscape art that explores what was absent in the work of their predecessors. Beyond Wilderness expands the public understanding of Canadian landscape representation, tracing debates about the place of landscape in Canadian art and the national imagination through the twentieth century to the present. Critical writings from both contemporary and historically significant curators, historians, feminists, media theorists, and cultural critics and exactingly reproduced artworks by contemporary and historical artists are brought together in productive dialogue. Beyond Wilderness explains why landscape art in Canada had to be reinvented, and what forms the reinvention took. Contributors include Benedict Anderson (Cornell), Grant Arnold (Vancouver Art Gallery). Rebecca Belmore, Jody Berland (York), Eleanor Bond (Concordia), Jonathan Bordo (Trent), Douglas Cole, Marlene Creates, Marcia Crosby (Malaspina), Greg Curnoe, Ann Davis (Nickle Arts Museum), Leslie Dawn (Lethbridge), Shawna Dempsey, Christos Dikeakos, Peter Doig, Rosemary Donegan (OCAD), Stan Douglas, Paterson Ewen, Robert Fones, Northrop Frye, Robert Fulford, General Idea, Rodney Graham, Reesa Greenberg, Gu Xiong (British Columbia), Cole Harris (British Columbia), Richard William Hill (Middlesex), Robert Houle, Andrew Hunter (Waterloo), Lynda Jessup (Queen's), Zacharias Kunuk (Igloolik Isuma Productions), Johanne Lamoureux (Montréal), Robert Linsley (Waterloo), Barry Lord (Lord Cultural Resources), Marshall McLuhan, Mike MacDonald, Liz Magor (ECIAD), Lorri Millan, Gerta Moray (Guelph), Roald Nasgaard (Florida State), N.E.

Summary:
Parasites are flexible and temporary structures, designed by artists or architects, that feed off existing infrastructure. "Parasite Paradise" documents 23 projects that offer new ways of designing the public domain outside the existing rules. Many of these parasites have settled in the government-designated 'Vinex' district of Leidsche Rijn near Utrecht. There they have introduced new and unforeseen functions, turning a district almost exclusively concerned with dwelling into a more urban entity. What do these small, mobile architectural interventions mean for our strictly regulated society and for the planning of architecture and urbanism? What sense (or nonsense) is there in mobile architecture from a historical perspective? And how does it divide up the roles of art and architecture? Essays by Gijs van Oenen, Ivan Nio, Hans Ibelings, Jennifer Allen and Olof Koekebakker examine these issues in depth. The project descriptions and essays encourage us to consider another approach to planning, one where not everything is fixed beforehand. This makes Parasite Paradise required reading for architects, urban planners and artists whose concern is designing the public realm. "Parasite Paradise" features projects by a.o. Inge Roseboom and Mark Weemen, Shigeru Ban, Atelier van Lieshout, Exilhäuser Architekten, Hans Peter Wörndl, 2012 Architecten, Bik VanderPol with Korteknie Stuhlmacher Architecten, Alicia Framis, Eduard Böhtlingk, Luc Deleu, Attila Foundation (Kas Oosterhuis, Menno Rubbens, Ilona Lénárd), Daniel Milohnic & Dirk Paschke, Maurer United Architects and Dré Wapenaar.
