Changement de décor : le paysage contemporain en Europe
Actions:
Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
Le paysagisme bénéficie aujourd'hui d'un regain d'intérêt et sucite des attentes iportantes. Il incarne notamment l'espoir de réunir le caractère fonctionnel d'une étude à sa portée artistique et à sa dimension sensible. On attend de lui qu'il satisfasse le grand public tout en conservant sa crédibilité conceptuelle. Enfin, le paysagisme doit faire face aux exigences de l'intégration sociale. Les travaux présentés dans cet ouvrage, réalisés par des paysagistes originaires de huit pays, illustrent la grande diversité du paysage contemporain en Europe. Aux interventions classiques - jardins, cours, places et parcs - s'ajoutent des projets qui témoignent de la collaboration avec d'autres disciplines, des vastes aménagements destinés aux nouveaux transports jusqu'à la reconversion de friches industrielles, en passant par l'art de la vidéo et, naturellement, la confrontation incessante et fructueuse avec l'architecture. L'ouvrage de Thies Schröder montre que nous nous trouvons à un moment clé de l'histoire du paysagisme européen et témoigne peut-être d'une nouvelle approche : la justesse historique et environnementale d'un aménagement fait progressivement place à la simple réalité des modes de vie urbain, avec leur impact direct sur la nature. Supports de fonctionnalités concrètes et de visions abstraites, les paysages et les jardins servent de relai entre la nature et l'art.

This small book is an intriguing and valuable addition to our knowledge of a changing landscape. Literary, etymological, historical, and vernacular investigations of such varied terms as "guzzle," "creek," and "chartreuse," Stilgoe's definitions are lyric explanations of words whose original meanings have been eroded by time.

Danish and Swedish landscape architects already numered among the European avant-garde in the first half of the last century. While Spain, France and The Nethelands were moving into the focus of interest in recent decades, a new generation of Scandinavian designers created remarkable landscape architecture - with different emphases in the individual countries. "Topos - European Landscape Magazine" reports regularly on new projects. Notable contributions are collected in this volume to provide a survey of current Scandinavian landscape architecture : Swedish and Finnish national landscapes, new squares in Bergen, architecture and landscape in Iceland, power dams in Norway, parks in Denmark ...

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
Public parks are among the most important open spaces in our cities, and contribute decisively to their character. They fulfil ecological, social and urban design requirements, and upgrade adjacent neighbourhoods and even whole city districts. New parks are being built all over Europe, in the hearts of cities or out in the periphery, as in the case of Invalidenpark in Berlin and Thames Barrier Park in London, respectively. Some, such as Park André-Citroën, Paris, serve purely recreational purposes. Others, namely the sculpture garden of the Kröller-Muller Museum Park in the Netherland, are devoted to art or to botanic abundance, as the Botanical Garden in Barcelona. The creation of such extensive new green spaces is always the subject of public and professional discourse, no matter whether this concerns La Villette in Paris, Duisburg-Nord Lanscape Park in the Ruhr, or the new park at Munich's old airport in Riem. According, the compact survey is rounded off by theoretical discussion. Based on essays published in "Topos - European landscape magazine" between 1993 and today, the resulting collection of familiar and less-known parks from many European countries provides an excellent overview of current approaches to park and park design.

Price:

Summary:
In the early 1990s the design and creation of the Central Garden at the Getty Center were entrusted to the distinguished contemporary visual artist Robert Irwin. Irwin, a member of California's "light and space" movement, was an unexpected choice for this major commission, and his work has aroused intense interest in the art world and among gardening enthusiasts and visitors to the Getty Center. In "Robert Irwin Getty Garden", Lawrence Weschler offers a lively account of the creation of what Irwin has playfully termed "a sculpture in the form of a garden aspiring to be art." Weschler's narrative is followed by a transcript of conversations in which he and Irwin, in a series of walks through the garden, discuss in detail the decisions, both philosophical and practical, that shaped the making of this major art work in Southern California. The book contains more than 150 colour illustrations, many of them specially commissioned from photographer Becky Cohen.
