中国古典园林植物材料的周期性营造 技艺与维护管理

借助现有园林图像和文本,对中国古典园林植物材 料营造技艺与维护管理进行深入讨论,重点关注整体园林营造 与维护过程中多样的时间性和具身性体验。首先,以竹材作为 切入点,在分析竹子自身材料特性的基础上,总结归纳“周期 性”“可生长”竹庐与柏亭的营造和维护,并进一步关注园林 营造中以竹作材的竹篱与竹屏。其次,聚焦“柳枝”这一关 键的园林营造材料,重点探讨了柳的形态、“去稍”修剪管理 及其相关审美,并将柳的种植与管理置于区域性景观生产和 基础设施营造的文脉中进行探讨。以竹材与柳枝作为研究对 象,发掘其材料特质、技艺与自然审美,为中国古典园林研 究提出一个从文人到非文人,从图像到物质,从文本到技艺 的研究新视角。     

生态还是自然主义: 关于当代种植设计的简要回顾和一些思考

Nature is a cultural construct, and a symbolic form to our cultural landscape. It plays a critical role in the profession of Landscape Architecture, shaping both the practice in the constructed environment as well as the conception of landscape in Pedagogy. This article evaluates contemporary landscape architecture practice in the U.S. through the lens of planting design and ecological design approaches. This retrospect situates selected individuals and their practices in the field of landscape architecture in the past two decades, in parallel with the evolving ecological understanding. These individuals and their works demonstrate the changes in planting design and ecological thinking in the professional practice, and most importantly how these changes contribute to current ecological design methodologies, landscape aesthetics, and public perception of landscape. In addition, the article aims to illustrate a shifting conception of Nature over time and in different cultural context, in which different conceptions of Nature facilitate various approaches to addressing environmental issues. By situating in such context, the article hopes to provide a critical view of contemporary American landscape architecture practice and the current ecological agenda, in order to enable discussions regarding the professional practice in the future.
