This book presents a wide range of landscapes that have been integral to the Modern Movement era. It aims to raise awareness of their design significance and to broaden understanding of their diversity. It demonstrates the breadth of roles that landscape architects and affiliated designers have played in response to the demands wrought by social, political and environmental change, particularly in the post-World War II years. In this sense it draws attention to people and places that previously may have been marginally understood—‘invisible’ or ‘dislocated’—thus enabling them to be appreciated in new ways and to be considered more carefully in comparative analyses into the future.
Included in this book are eighty-six landscapes spanning the twentieth century and representing the following thirty-eight countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Ghana, Greece, Guatemala, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Lithuania, Mexico, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Romania, Scotland, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Syria, Thailand, the Netherlands, Turkey, United States of America, and Venezuela.
The contributors to this monograph are largely representatives of the International Committee for Documentation and Conservation of Buildings, Sites and Neighbourhoods of the Modern Movement, otherwise known as Docomomo International. Docomomo is made up of a wide range of people representing an array of cultures, expertise and interests, the distinctive ‘voices’ of which permeate this book.
