Résumé:
In this project, graphic designers Jamie Yeo and Gideon Kong obsessively observe and photograph minor urban occurrences in Singapore which possibly challenge popular ideas about the city being “clean and green” or inauthentic. The images reveal creative forms of appropriation (or resistance) that indirectly critique top-down design implementations or suggest other(...)

In this project, graphic designers Jamie Yeo and Gideon Kong obsessively observe and photograph minor urban occurrences in Singapore which possibly challenge popular ideas about the city being “clean and green” or inauthentic. The images reveal creative forms of appropriation (or resistance) that indirectly critique top-down design implementations or suggest other micro-possibilities of use. In this instalment, plants are the focus. Whether growing wild or carefully tended, vegetation in the city is often taken for granted. Here we see them serve dual functions as drying racks, shoe hangers, trash receptacles, and seasonal holiday decorations.

Résumé:
Postindustrial transitions and changing cultures of nature have produced an unprecedented degree of fascination with urban biodiversity. The “other nature” that flourishes in marginal urban spaces, at one remove from the controlled contours of metropolitan nature, is not the poor relation of rural flora and fauna. Indeed, these islands of biodiversity underline the(...)

Résumé:
Postindustrial transitions and changing cultures of nature have produced an unprecedented degree of fascination with urban biodiversity. The “other nature” that flourishes in marginal urban spaces, at one remove from the controlled contours of metropolitan nature, is not the poor relation of rural flora and fauna. Indeed, these islands of biodiversity underline the porosity of the distinction between urban and rural. In this volume, Matthew Gandy explores urban nature as a multilayered material and symbolic entity, through the lens of urban ecology and the parallel study of diverse cultures of nature at a global scale. A study of urban nature that draws together different strands of urban ecology as well as insights derived from feminist, posthuman, and postcolonial thought.

It has become conventional to think of urbanism and landscape as opposing one another—or to think of landscape as merely providing temporary relief from urban life as shaped by buildings and infrastructure.

Résumé:
Du modeste érable qui ombrage le parking d’une école au vénérable tilleul qui veille sur l‘entrée d’une bâtisse remarquable, les arbres des villes sont constamment confrontés à de multiples pressions qui réduisent leur espérance de vie. Mobilisée par ce constat inquiétant, une communauté de spécialistes intervient pour les préserver, les soigner puis les renouveler: les arbres sont leurs patients. Parmi eux, les experts arboricoles – dont l’auteur fait partie – se rendent régulièrement à leur chevet pour évaluer leur état de santé et déceler leurs éventuelles défaillances. Ce livre met en lumière l’activité de ces praticiens, peu nombreux en France, et propose au lecteur d’aller différemment à la rencontre de ces végétaux urbains.

Résumé:
Weeds are botanical thugs, but they have always been essential to our lives. They were the first crops and medicines and they inspired Velcro. They adorn weddings and foliate the most derelict urban sites. With the verve and historical breadth of Michael Pollan, acclaimed nature writer Richard Mabey delivers a provocative defense of the plants we love to hate.
