Summary:
La nouvelle Cité judiciaire de Paris – remportée par Renzo Piano en 2010, construite dans le quartier des Batignolles et inaugurée en 2018 – devait être le signe de l’avènement d’une justice nouvelle, renonçant à l’intimidation au profit du soin, de l’accueil et de la rassurance. Mais, en acceptant de se lancer dans ce projet – le plus important qu’a connu Paris depuis (...)

Mais, en acceptant de se lancer dans ce projet – le plus important qu’a connu Paris depuis les années 1970 –, Piano oublia quelque chose : que l’histoire de la justice est une histoire pleine de virage et de portes dérobées – et que les intentions les plus généreuses y sont souvent celles qui produisent les effets les plus violents. Piano voulait construire un post-tribunal ; il se pourrait bien qu’il ait construit une nouvelle île, où mieux que jamais barricader la justice.

Summary:
Roberto Burle Marx (1909–1994) remains one of the most important landscape architects in the history of the field. His distinctive and widely acclaimed work has been featured and referenced in numerous sources, yet few of Burle Marx’s own words have been published. This collection of a dozen of Burle Marx’s lectures, most of which have never before been available in English, fills that void. Delivered on international speaking tours, they address topics such as Concepts in Landscape Composition, Gardens and Ecology and The Problem of Garden Lighting. Their publication sheds light on Burle Marx’s distinctive ethic and aesthetic of landscape, as “the real art in living.” The lectures paint a picture of Burle Marx not just as a gardener, artist and botanist, but as a landscape architect whose ambition was to bring radical change to cities and society.

Back when color photography did not exist, these images were illustrated with the purpose of replicating the botanic subject as realistically as possible. Toma is interested in doing the exact opposite with the photographic medium which, realistic by nature, can also be used to make a subject look unreal and artificial. The result is a contemporary revival of the concept of the botanical encyclopedia.
