Between memory and hope: landscape as space-time-construct*
Sébastien Marot, Paris
Vortrag im Rahmen der Jahresschwerpunktes/ Status Quo Vadis - Die
Zukunft der Architektur als Prognose und Programm.
/In englischer Sprache./
/*Zeit*: Montag, 25. Jänner 2010, 19 Uhr
*Ort*: Project Space Kunsthalle Karlsplatz, Karlsplatz, 1040 Wien
"Think global, act local". This famous motto of the environmentally
conscious might find its temporal translation in what Marcel Proust
wrote almost a century ago: "We should think as if we were eternal, and
work as if we were to die tomorrow."
Notwithstanding the fact that those propositions could be reversed
without losing much of their pertinence, we might venture the idea that
the major task facing us today is to give more time to space and more
space to time. But isn't this, by the way, what architecture and
landscape architecture have always been about?
Our intention, in this lecture, will be to explore some of the aspects
and consequences of this idea and to promote a conception of (landscape)
architecture as both an art of memory and an art of hope, applied to
making our present thicker, more spacious, more substantial, and
therefore more habitable. A way of combining Hans Jonas's Principle
Responsibility with Ernst Bloch's Principle Hope, by giving a new
resonance to what Karl Marx once said to his French translator: "It is
in the very fact that our situation is hopeless that I find reasons for
hoping."/
Sébastien Marot
1961, trained as a philosopher, is a critic and historian in
architecture and landscape design. Animator of the Tribune d'histoire et
d'actualité de l'architecture between 1987 and 2002 at the Société
Française des Architectes in Paris, he was then the founder and chief
editor of the French journal Le Visiteur from 1995 to 2003.
Presently a professor in theory and history at the École d'architecture
de la ville et des territoires in Marne La Vallée, and a guest professor
at the chair of Landscape Architecture at the ETH in Zürich, Marot has
also taught as a visiting critic in several schools across Europe
(Architectural Association in London, IAUG Geneva, École du Paysage de
Versailles...) and North America (GSD Harvard, UPENN School of Design,
Cornell University, University of Montreal).
Marot's researches and writings have been mostly devoted to the issues
of site and space-time in landscape architecture and Urbanism (cf.
Sub-Urbanism and the Art of Memory, AA Publications, London 2003), and
he is currently preparing the publication of his PhD: Palimpsestuous
Ithaca, A Relative Manifesto for Sub-Urbanism. In the last years, his
teaching and lectures have progressively focused on the history of
environmental issues and on what he calls the "art of hope" in
contemporary design.//
