Landscape as a Cabinet of Curiosities: In Search of a Position

Picking up on architecture's tradition of teaching professional experience to students through conversation, this book provides insight into the ideas, methods, and memories of GÃ¼nther Vogt,

and questions the attitude that this innovative landscape architect adopts towards his profession.

With reference to five different locations, GÃ¼nther Vogt speaks about current themes of landscape architecture and its relationship to architecture and the city, about his teaching at the ETH ZÃ¼rich, and about the work of Vogt Landscape Architects; he describes his perception of the lanscape as a cabinet of curiostities, tells how he collects various phenomena and individual elements, relates them to each other and rearranges them. And in the reader's mind's eye unfolds a cosmos, in which the lack of wholeness of "the landscape" seems to be a gain rather than a loss.
