Résumé:
Made up of architects, lawyers, journalists, scientists, and more, Forensic Architecture is far from a conventional architectural practice; instead investigating human rights and environmental violations where the truth appears to have been distorted or covered up. In 10 years of work, they have investigated illegal detention sites in Cameroon, used oceanography to track a migrant boat adrift in NATO-surveilled waters, modelled a prison in Syria using victims’ memories of sound, and examined the causes and consequences of forest fires in Borneo and Sumatra. At its forefront is Eyal Weizman, a British Israeli architect. He is interviewed by Freya Marshall in issue 48 of Mono Kultur.

Through intertwined images of abandoned Greco-Roman casts, an ancient Sequoia forest and the artist’s own texts, Mericle invites us to consider history as a fluid process rather than a static truth. The once highly valued casts – which appear in the book as original and archival photographs – were rejected as worthless copies during the early part of the 20th century, under the belief that they lacked the artistry and aura of the originals, despite the fact that many of the "originals" were in fact Roman copies of Greek artefacts.

The book is divided by chapter into the themes most relevant to the practice: Garden & Park, Forest & Park, Re-use, Historico-cultural Landscapes, and Living in Water Landscapes. Tackling issues such as planning versus design, spatial solutions in an urbanised world, accommodating natural forms and systems, and the pursuit of the sublime, Strootman presents itself as formally rooted in the history of the Dutch landscape while simultaneously applying contemporary ecological and spatial strategies. Included are a variety of notable projects from both within the Netherlands and across Europe.

Résumé:
By changing our collective relationship with the planet, global warming has transformed the artist’s gaze. Curator Nicolas Bourriaud invites artists from around the world to question the contemporaneity of the Romantic concept of the sublime in the age of the Anthropocene. Today, the sublime, grounded in the connection between humans and nature, takes a new turn, defined as a feeling of ''delight tinged with horror''. The contrast between the individual and immensity thus becomes the aesthetic notion that determines our age. Bourriaud’s exhibition takes place in three acts: every exhibition is a forest; Charles Darwin and the coral reefs; and the tragic death of Nauru Island.
