"I think what we're talking about is the poetry of space –
that's what landscape design is about." : Dan Kiley



This volume brings together a wide range of critical commentary on one of American's most productive & talented landscape architect's- Dan Kiley. Through out his career Kiley collaborated with some of the most distinguished architects: Louis Kahn, Eero Saarinen, and I.M. Pei to create award winning spaces. This publication features the long out-of-print proceedings of a 1982 symposium at the University of Virginia. The transcript illuminates Kiley's approach to design and will provide inspiration to the next generation of landscape architects, architects and planners

Zahi Hawass
Nefertiti para o Cairo.....







Pedido de devolução de Nefertiti vai ser oficializado, sendo que os responsáveis egípcios alegam que a obra-prima deixou o país de forma "não ética" e fraudulenta em 1912.

O Egipto vai pedir oficialmente o regresso do busto de Nefertiti, obra-prima da arte faraónica, actualmente exposto num museu alemão, anunciou ontem no Cairo Zahi Hawass, o director do Conselho Supremo das Antiguidades Egípcias.

Hawass vai "convocar uma reunião extraordinária para estudar as formalidades necessárias para o pedido oficial de devolução da estátua", segundo se lê num comunicado daquele organismo, emitido após reuniões tidas com Friederike Seyfried, a directora do Museu Egípcio e da Colecção de Papiros do Neues Museum de Berlim.

O busto de Nefertiti tem cer- ca de 3400 a nos e foi descoberto em 1912, no Sul do Egipto, pelo arqueólogo alemão Ludwig Borchardt. Os egípcios pedem a sua restituição desde a década de 30 do século pas-sado, sempre sem sucesso.

Zahi Hawass afirma que após a sua descoberta, a estátua foi habilmente ocultada para passar despercebida e enviada por barco para a Alemanha.

Segundo este responsável, Ludwig Borchardt escreveu deliberadamente que o busto era feito de gesso e representava uma princesa real, "quando sabia perfeitamente que era uma estátua em calcário da rainha Nefertiti".

Isto prova, ainda de acordo com Hawass, que o arqueólogo alemão fez esta descrição para que a Alemanha pudesse conservar a estátua". Assim, "confirmam-se as nossas informações segundo as quais a estátua deixou o Egipto de forma não ética e que houve uma fraude e uma dissimulação por parte da Alemanha nessa altura".

Por seu lado, Berlim sustenta que a aquisição do busto de Nefertiti foi feita de forma legal em 1913, e insiste no perigo posto por qualquer deslocação a uma escultura tão "frágil".

Friederike Seyfried não está convencida e apresentou, nomeadamente, o documento que prova a saída legal da estátua do Egipto, confirmada pelas autoridades alemãs.

O busto de Nefertiti está em exposição desde o passado dia 17 de Outubro no Neues Museum de Berlim, situado na célebre "Ilha dos Museus" da capital alemã, onde foi mostrado pela primeira vez ao grande público em 1927, antes de ter sido transferido para o Museu Egípcio.

Além desta peça, o Egipto exige também ao Ocidente a devolução de obras como a Pedra da Roseta, exposta há 200 anos no Museu Britânico de Londres.

Climate Change!!








ainda sobre alteracoes climaticas a serie de documentarios de 3 episodios da autoria de Ian Stewart nosso conhecido do celebre documentario Earth the Power of the planet




Earth - The Climate Wars

Global warming, and how to combat it, has provoked intense debate, changed the way we see the planet and created headlines around the world. But when and how did scientists first discover global warming, why has it led to such furious debate and who should we believe?
In BBC Two's three-part series, Earth – The Climate Wars, geologist Dr Iain Stewart (Earth – The Power Of The Planet) presents a definitive guide to the history of climate change





Battle Begins


In the 1970s the world seemed to be falling apart. From acid rain to overpopulation, ecological concerns were at the fore. And it was at this time that climate change first became a hot political issue. But it wasn't global warming that frightened scientists, it was the complete opposite; a new ice age.
Dr Iain Stewart traces the history of climate change from its very beginning and examines just how the scientific community managed to get it so very wrong back in the Seventies. Along the way he uncovers some of the great unsung heroes of climate change science, and introduces us to a secret organisation of American government scientists, known as Jason, who wrote the first official report on global warming as far back as 1979.
He shows how - by the late 1980s - global warming had already become a serious political issue. It looked as if the world was uniting to take action. But it turned out to be a false dawn. Because in the 1990s global warming would be transformed into one of the biggest scientific controversies of our age.






Fightback


Dr Iain Stewart investigates the counter-attack that was launched by the global warming sceptics in the 1990s.
At the start of the '90s it seemed the world was united. At the Rio Earth summit the world signed up to a programme of action to start tackling climate change. Even George Bush was there. But the consensus didn't last.
Iain examines the scientific arguments that developed as the global warming sceptics took on the climate change consensus. The sceptics attacked almost everything that scientists held to be true. They argued that the planet wasn't warming up, that even if it was it was nothing unusual, and certainly whatever was happening to the climate was nothing to do with human emissions of greenhouse gases.
Iain interviews some of the key global warming sceptics, and discovers how their positions have changed over time.




Fight for the Future


Having explained the science behind global warming, and addressed the arguments of the climate change sceptics earlier in the series, Dr Iain Stewart concludes the series by looking at the biggest challenge now facing climate scientists - Just how can they predict exactly what changes global warming will bring?
It's a journey that takes him from early attempts to model the climate system with dishpans, to supercomputers, and to the frontline of climate research today: Greenland. Most worryingly he discovers that scientists are becoming increasingly concerned that their models are actually underestimating the speed of changes already underway

IFLA Statement on Climate Change






"The International Federation of Landscape Architects encourages the development and adoption of a Global Landscape Convention to assist nations working to address the impact of climate change on the world’s landscapes and people. They offer this idea for consideration at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, on 7-18 December 2009.
‘The leaders will be talking about the landscapes of the world, as we know them, and the future of people and species that live in them, Dr Diane Menzies, the President said. ‘The expected participation by some 100 of the world’s political leaders as well as from numerous other groups reflects extreme international concern, Dr Menzies said.
‘One single change such as sea level rise, will have an immense impact on coastal cities and populations around the globe. Landscapes as we know them are endangered. In preparing an agreed approach landscape architects hope that effects on landscapes and those who live there will be reduced and processes for co-operation to mitigate impacts will be developed.’

‘Countries such as Netherlands have been developing policies to manage landscapes threatened with inundation, but small Pacific Island nations lack the resources to adequately cope with expected impacts. They may lose their homes and islands. There are thousands of kilometres of coastline in my country, New Zealand which will irrevocably change, taking with it the history, ecology, and relations people have built with these loved coastlines. This is just one small example of the immensity of change we must address,’ said Dr Menzies.


Landscapes change All landscapes change over time. Climate change though is the greatest threat to the Earth’s landscapes. These threats include destruction of landscapes such as Pacific Islands through inundation caused by sea level rise. They include large-scale damage caused by floods and other weather related events and changes. They include impacts on ecosystems and species, and impacts on special heritage and everyday landscapes. Climate change will separate people from cherished places as they now know them. Perversely the global thrust to minimise carbon discharge by moving to renewable energy resources including wind turbines, to reduce the effects of increased greenhouse gas emissions, is also having major visual and other impacts on landscapes around the globe. Thus the worlds landscapes (and people) are affected by the impact of climate change as well as current methods to develop renewable energy resources.

Sustainable land use practices
For more than a century since the profession of landscape architecture formed, we have supported the principle of stewardship of land. Landscape architects advocate the wise planning, artful design and careful maintenance of all landscapes through developing sustainable land use policies, ecologically conscious practices and working with communities to enable their loved places to be protected, or integrated into neighbourhoods and cities.


Global Landscape Convention
Based on the success of the European Landscape Convention in forewarning and assisting land managers and decision makers to tackle climate change impacts on landscapes throughout Europe, the International Federation of Landscape Architects is promoting a Global Landscape Convention. This will assist people to address the immense changes that will come about from climate change. We seek your support to promote the value of this idea as a means to address climate change impacts on the landscapes of the globe.


Climate adaptation tools
A project to investigate, assess and promote suitable Climate Adaptation Tools for Sustainable Settlements (CATSS) is currently underway, the task being undertaken by our member the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects. This will provide practical support for those dealing with change and will be available next year. Other initiatives underway will address the Right to Landscape and sustainable infrastructure, all intended to continue to find better ways to manage and minimise environmental risk through sustainable design, innovative storm water management and recognition of community values. IFLA is dedicated to using all traditional and non- traditional tools available to positively influence environmental outcomes including but not limited to climate change. These ideas may include design guidelines through to education and economic tools. IFLA supports the material profiling and economic market place tools being currently developed.

Sustainable by Design
The International Federation supports the International Union of Architects on their ‘Sustainable by Design’ initiative and commend this to decision-makers and practitioners.

Sustainable world
Our members work for a sustainable world and sustainable landscapes using wise practice, methods and tools. We look to the wisdom of decision-makers in Copenhagen to minimise climate change and so reduce impacts on threatened landscapes of the world."

Dr Diane Menzies
President, International Federation of Landscape Architects

Local: Casa da Horta, Associação Cultural (Porto, Rua de São Francisco, 12A, perto da Igreja de São Francisco e Mercado Ferreira Borges)



No passado dia 4 de Outubro de 2009, a Campo Aberto organizou uma visita ao Vale do Tua. As fotografias que fazem parte desta exposição foram tiradas pelos participantes durante a caminhada pela linha do Tua, desde a Foz a São Lourenço (~16Km).





O património associado ao Vale do Tua- a sua magnífica paisagem e a linha férrea que o percorre- encontra-se ameaçado pela construção de uma barragem em Foz-Tua. Com esta exposição pretendemos divulgar e dar a conhecer este património único e o dano irreparável que a construção da barragem poderá trazer caso o seu projecto seja concretizado.





PROGRAMA

21h00: Inauguração da exposição de fotografia

21h30: Início das apresentações pelos oradores convidados e debate:



Isabel Fernandes (Jornalista que nos acompanhou durante o passeio e que é autora do artigo “Mais de 120 anos de cultura em risco” publicado no jornal “As Artes entre as Letras”)- “Despertar Consciências nos Trilhos do Património”



José Manuel Lopes Cordeiro (Professor da Universidade do Minho, Presidente da APPI – Associação Portuguesa para o Património Industrial)- “Linha do Tua, um património a conhecer, um património a preservar”

A+T : THE PUBLIC CHANCE



THE PUBLIC CHANCE is a visual analysis of 30 urban landscapes of opportunity. The projects selected are grouped according to scene of origin:
- Industrial areas
- Peripheral voids
- Infrastructures
- Waterfronts.

Each project is located:
- within surroundings of 60 km2 at a scale of 1:20,000
- within surroundings of 3.5 km2 at a scale of 1:10,000.

Each intervention undergoes a layer analysis:
- water
- vegetation
- buildings
- routes
- rooms
- activities

The 20 most used strategies arise from the comparison of all the projects.

THE PUBLIC CHANCE is the first book published by a+t ediciones in the In common series, which came about in 2005 in the pages of a+t magazine to express our concern for the good use and design of common spaces and was developed over two years, in four issues.
THE PUBLIC CHANCE offers a renewed vision of some of those projects and a third of new interventions, all of them under thematic analysis, characteristic of a+t’s publications

TERRITÓRIO E PAISAGEM no camara clara


"A paisagem é aquela coisa que corre, ao longe, nos vidros dos nossos carros". Será só isto a paisagem? Aquilo que fazemos do território quando o ocupamos e trabalhamos? Dias depois de o The New York Times ter classificado o Alto Alentejo como um dos últimos paraísos rurais do velho mundo, na linha da Provença e da Toscânia, o geógrafo Álvaro Domingues e o arquitecto paisagista João Nunes debatem sobre o que é e sobre o que podia ser a paisagem portuguesa. Sobre as falácias da expressão "desenvolvimento sustentável", sobre auto-estradas e estradas secundárias e sobre como salvar os queijos de Serpa ou os enchidos beirões. Uma emissão surpreendente.

O livro que deu o mote para esta conversa!:



'Duas Linhas' é um projecto desenvolvido pelos arquitectos Pedro Campos Costa e Nuno Louro, agora apresentado em Livro e exposição.

Partindo do conceito que "70% da população habita o território Português ao longo da costa Ocidental, apenas 30% da população vive no interior do país, ao longo da fronteira com Espanha, duas zonas habitadas de diferentes maneiras, com tempos diferentes, ritmos, arquitecturas, paisagens, culturas, velocidades e densidades diferentes", este projecto pretende mostrar esta realidade paralela, os seus desequilíbrios, as suas imagens míticas e fantasias, os seus desejos. Desafios, dilemas e oportunidades.

O livro conta com textos de Mário Alves , Álvaro Domingues, João Nunes, Samuel Rego e João Seixas, fotografias de Daniel Malhão e Nuno Cera, e design gráfico dos R2 Design.
