Résumé:
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.

Résumé:
"The Spiral Jetty Encyclo" draws on Smithson’s writings for encyclopedic entries that bring to light the context of the earthwork and Smithson’s many points of reference in creating it. Visitors and armchair travelers, too, will discover how much significance Smithson placed on regional considerations, his immersion in natural history, his passion for travel, and his ability to use diverse mediums to create a cohesive and lasting work of art. Containing some 220 images, most of them in color, with some historical black and whites, "The Spiral Jetty Encyclo" lets readers explore the construction, connections, and significance of Smithson’s 1,500-foot-long curl into Great Salt Lake, created, in Smithson’s words, of “mud, salt crystals, rocks, water.”

Résumé:
The Center for land use interpretation is a research-based educational organization that produces public programs about the built landscape of the United States from its sites in Los Angeles, Utah and the Mojave desert, with an upstate New York location opening in 2006. The Center’s aim is to increase and diffuse information about how the nation’s lands are apportioned, utilized and perceived. Recent examples of their work include a two-day "Tour of the monuments of the great American void" by bus and the exhibit "Immersed remains: towns submerged in America". This book takes readers on a tour through the strangely unfamiliar land that Americans live in, demonstrating that we can understand ourselves by examining the clues on display all around us, often clearly visible but ignored. Each chapter explores a different topic, from an in-depth look at Ohio ("the most all-American state"); through scale shifts in model landscapes, exemplified in the three largest hydraulic models in the world; and law-enforcement training environments that "simulate" public space. Readers can dive into the hidden and enchanting world of show caves, where America is on display underground; and come up into the Great Basin, a zone covering most of Nevada, and portions of Utah, California, Oregon, Idaho and Mexico, whose network of watersheds has no outlet to the ocean. Following lines and edges, through cities, suburbs, small towns and wide-open spaces, the Center guides us upstream, toward the heart of another America - the same, but different.

Résumé:
The death of Robert Smithson in 1973 robbed postwar American art of an unusually creative practitioner and thinker. Smithson's pioneering earthworks of the 1960s and 1970s anticipated contemporary concerns with environmentalism and the site-specific character of artistic production. His interrogation of authorship, the linear historiography of high modernism, and the limitations of the museum prefigures key themes in postmodern criticism while underscoring the uniqueness of Smithson's own work as an artist, filmmaker, and writer. Gary Shapiro's elegant and incisive study of Smithson's career is the first book to address the full range of the artist's dazzling virtuosity. Ranging from Smithson's best known works such as Spiral Jetty and Partially Buried Woodshed to his photographs, films, and theoretical readings and writings, Shapiro's masterful book analyzes Smithson's art in relation to the legacy of American art of the 1960s and central philosophical themes in its contemporary reception.

Résumé:
L’acte de construire le plus simple est sûrement de poser deux pierres l’une sur l’autre, ou, pour l’arpenteur des bords de mer, de faire des châteaux de sable. C’est à un retour vers cette joie pure et ces gestes instinctifs de bâtisseur d’éphémère que Tina Bloch, commissaire d’exposition, a convié 34 architectes ou duo d’architectes européens. Sur les plages de Deauville et de Benerville, d’étonnants monuments se sont élevés entre ciel et mer, des mandalas et des labyrinthes à perte de vue ont connu une existence fugace mais intense. À la fois land art et sand painting, les propositions, mûrement élaborées ou improvisées selon l’inspiration de l’instant, sont d’une étonnante diversité. Creuser, édifier, sculpter, mouler, scarifier, ratisser, dessiner, modeler… le sable se prête à toutes les inventions poétiques.Entre deux marées, le photographe Michel Denancé a capturé leur éphémère beauté, mêlant les perspectives à hauteur d’œil et les vues aériennes pour un résultat d’une grande force esthétique.

Résumé:
In the decades after World War II, artists and designers of the land art movement used the natural landscape to create monumental site-specific artworks. Second Site offers a powerful meditation on how environmental change and the passage of time alter and transform the meanings—and sometimes appearances—of works created to inhabit a specific place. James Nisbet offers fresh approaches to well-known artworks by Ant Farm, Rebecca Belmore, Nancy Holt, Richard Serra, and Robert Smithson. He also examines the work of less recognized artists such as Agnes Denes, Bonnie Devine, and herman de vries. Nisbet tracks the vicissitudes wrought by climate change and urban development on site-specific artworks, taking readers from the plains of Amarillo, Texas, to a field of volcanic rock in Mexico City, to abandoned quarries in Finland.
