Dieter Kienast
Distinctively Dieter Kienast: his gardens, parks, cemeteries and enclosures bear the unmistakeable imprint of his blend of nature and artifice, order and chaos, geometry and organic forms -- sometimes stringent, sometimes playful, and not without irony. This special edition brings together a selection of his most significant creations drawn from the highly successful three volume Birkhauser edition of his complete works. Udo Weilacher, landscape architect and lecturer at the University of Hannover, illuminates Kienast's accomplishments and his influence in an accompanying essay.
Gardens
Contemporary landscape architecture is seeking a modern and independent language. Dieter Kienast is one of the leading protagonists of this movement. He has won many public competitions in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This monograph is the first to present his complete works on private gardens and parks: around 30 designs, 22 of which have been realized, are discussed.
Thinking the Contemporary Landscape
On the heels of our groundbreaking books in landscape architecture, James Corner's Recovering Landscape and Charles Waldheim's Landscape Urbanism Reader, comes another essential reader, . Examining our shifting perceptions of nature and place in the context of environmental challenges and how these affect urbanism and architecture, the seventeen essayists in argue for an all-encompassing view of landscape that integrates the scientific, intellectual, aesthetic, and mythic into a new multidisciplinary understanding of the contemporary landscape. A must-read for anyone concerned about the changing nature of our landscape in a time of climate crisis.
Between Landscape Architecture and Land Art
Contemporary landscape architecture is progressing towards an appropiate and independent language of its own. Drawing on the potentials of art and architecture, the ever changing relationship between man and nature is given new expression. Ecological concerns and aesthetic aspirations interact in a fruitful dialogue. Particularly Land Art and related art movements become sources of inspiration and innovation. The ground-breakting works of the landscape artists and architects presented in this book reveal the diverse current trends in international landscape design. "This book offers many stimuli to design. Its contents are not just for landscape architects," wrote The architects' journal. With chapters on Dani Karavan, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Bernard Lassus, Peter Latz, Dieter Kienast, Herman Prigann, Peter Walker, Adriaan Geuze and others.
