Over a decade of landscape debate in Barcelona

摘要

This year, the 6th European Landscape Biennial - its symposium as well as its exhibitions - will be focusing on the idea of liquid landscapes, a concept that aims to go beyond a literal reference to water without excluding it. It was borrowed from the essay Liquid Modernity by Zygmunt Bau-man, a prominent thinker on Europe. The idea moreover gives continuity to the last Biennal's motto 'Storm and stress', where patterns of global crisis and the discipline's need to invent new practices were ascertained.
