Yet their design approach of “repre- sentative tranquility”, as one of the book’s contributions is entitled, has produced about one thousand projects over the years – seven of which, more exactly 5 built + 2 under construction, from Germany, Belgium, Italy and Ireland, form one of the main parts in this landscape-architectural monograph. Other sections strive to grasp the essence of Lützow 7’s approach to landscape design in a panoramic portfolio and also in a directo- ry to important design tasks and typical so- lutions in the realm between wilderness and detail. Tom Sieverts, the creator of the “in- between city” paradigm, and Richard Weller of PennDesign, well acquainted with the partners Cornelia Müller and Jan Wehberg’s work, contribute their personal views. th. schröder, ts|pk; th. sieverts, Urban Planner; R.

A point of departure for their broad rediscov- ery in Germany was the refurbishment of an abandoned steelworks from 1990 on by Peter Latz which subsequently became Duisburg Nord Landscape Park. There, industrial relics were not demolished or converted but per- ceived as integral parts of the overall con- cept and then imbued with new meaning and use – a kind of excavation of the future. Many additional projects with a similar approach were created in the past decades, among them Parc del Clòt in Barcelona, Parque do Tejo e Trancão in Lisbon or Michel Desvigne’s Parc aux Angéliques in Bordeaux, currently under construction.
This book does not only describe a system- atic framework for the use of post-industrial ruins it also contextualizes them in design history and analyzes their transformation in design theory. The author, professor for landscape design at Copenhagen University, covers a wide range of topics, linking 19th century Romanticism’s preoccupation with ruins to industrial decline (exemplified by Detroit) and then on to the subsequent Renaissance of the transformed landscape and its refound beauty. ellen Braae is Professor at the Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management, University Copenhagen.
birkhauser.com 20 | LAnDsCAPe | ARCHIteCtURe At the beginning of the 1990s, European landscape architecture started to appear on the international radar with the Parc de la Villette in Paris and the squares in Barcelona. Today, it is an emancipated cultural disci- pline, and Austrian landscape architecture is on the advance in gardens, on squares and roads, in parks, housing estates and around institutional buildings. This book, for the first time, contains a comprehensive presentation of contempo- rary Austrian landscape architecture: next-

G er m an Lucius Burckhardt (1925–2003) taught archi- tectural theory at Kassel University and, in the 1980s, coined the term “Promenadology” or the science of Strollology and developed this into a complex and far-sighted planning and design discipline. Given that “the land- scape” as an idea only exists in our heads, Burckhardt’s writings (and drawings) are not so much concerned with beautiful vistas, but focus instead on the multi-faceted interac- tion a simple walk-taker has with his environ- ment. To those who observe the environment with their eyes wide open, interesting ques- tions will arise again and again; for example, why “city” and “country” can no longer be separated so easily in the face of progressive urbanization. Or why we consider a viaduct to be beautiful, but a nuclear power station an intrusion. And also, why gardens are works of art and should therefore be appraised as such. This book contains 28 texts by the design and planning critic, for the first time in English, with the focus on landscapes, gardens as an art form and the science of Strollology. Lucius Burckhardt (1925–2003), Founder of the science of Strollology, teached architecture history in Kassel.

This book concerns his three-year research expedition through the Chinese Empire (1906–1909). He was the first Westerner to systematically document China's religious architecture, returning from his travels with thousands of photographs, sketches, and architectural surveys. His six major publica- tions leading up to 1931, described here alongside the reactions they caused, were milestones on the path to formal study of Chinese architectural history, long before Chinese academics themselves began to take interest in the subject in the 1930s.

Religious subject matter is not central in 20th century art. One might therefore suspect that, for the avant-garde, the Span- ish Civil War (1936–1939) would have eclipsed religion altogether. However, as Juan José Lahuerta argues in this book, the war caused a considerable revival of certain themes of religious art. In particular, it intensified Pablo Picasso’s lifelong preoccupation with the subject of the Crucifixion. The work of the Swiss surrealist painter Max von Moos (1903–1979) throws additional light on the paradox at hand. In 1938, i.e. one year after Picasso painted “Guernica”, von Moos published an essay entitled “Religious Paint- ing of Our Time” that addresses some of the critical issues then confronted by church art: issues of communication and expression, realism and abstraction that turn out to offer surprising insights into Picasso's art – if not into modern art altogether.

She has worked as a freelance artist since 1987. Until then she participated in artistic projects of the Linz artist collective Stadtwerkstatt. Her work can be divided into three parallel phas- es: her early pieces with textile materials and her later paintings with acrylic colors on canvas as well as pieces using an original technique developed for her work while on journeys, cut outs. The text contribution by Birgit Rinagl concen- trates on Esslinger’s paintings which explore the themes of men and women, public and private, work and free time, nature and city as well as life and death. Tom Waibel dis- cusses the subversive character of her hand luggage productions and brings light to their dark and ironic side. The introduction by Fina Esslinger, an art historian and the daughter of the artist, gives the reader the necessary background knowledge on motifs and the theoretical framework of the works, encour- aging the reader to enjoy Esslinger’s artistic output.

G er m an “Ahmet Oran follows in the tradition of mono- chrome painting influenced by the Art In- formel style. ... The essence of his painting is characterized by a quiet assertiveness, posi- tioning him somewhere between Mark Rothko, Gotthard Graubner and Hubert Scheibner” (Peter Baum). Oran first studied painting in Istanbul and came to Vienna in 1980, where he graduated with a diploma under Adolf Frohner. His big breakthrough came in 1995 when he was awarded 2nd prize in a competition. Oran’s work comes alive through the material texture of the finished surface. The repro- ductions, which demand exacting skills in lithography and printing, as well as sensitive graphic processing, have been carried out by Bohatsch and Partners, the well-known graphics studio. The book is not a comprehensive compilation of Ahmet Oran’s œuvre to date, but an initial presentation of works bundled into frag- mented groups, beginning with the current work cycles. The book concludes with a chronological illustrated listing of the pieces reproduced in it.
