Roberto Burle Marx (1909–1994) remains one of the most important landscape architects in the history of the field. His distinctive and widely acclaimed work has been featured and referenced in numerous sources, yet few of Burle Marx’s own words have been published. This collection of a dozen of Burle Marx’s lectures, most of which have never before been available in English, fills that void. Delivered on international speaking tours, they address topics such as Concepts in Landscape Composition, Gardens and Ecology and The Problem of Garden Lighting. Their publication sheds light on Burle Marx’s distinctive ethic and aesthetic of landscape, as “the real art in living.” The lectures paint a picture of Burle Marx not just as a gardener, artist and botanist, but as a landscape architect whose ambition was to bring radical change to cities and society. The lectures are framed by photographs, by Leonardo Finotti, of a selection of Burle Marx’s realized projects.

“In 1978 as the school year drew to a close two of my high school students who had tickets to a Rolling Stones Concert approached me and asked if I would like to go with them to the concert. After discussing it with my wife Nancy, who thought it was a good idea and promising photo opportunity, I was enthusiastic to go for the experience. My students were delighted that I’d be joining them. Besides they needed me to drive us to Philadelphia from Long Island, New York. So off we went for whatever adventure might lay ahead. And I carefully packed my three 35mm cameras and plenty of b&w film to record the event. Recently, I was inspired to revisit the contact sheets from that one day and choose images that still spoke to me after so many years. Here are some of those photographs I took on June 17th at JFK Stadium surrounded by 90,000 Rolling Stones fans who were so open to my camera. One footnote… Bill and Chris, my two students, are still in touch and we are good friends to this day. I am forever grateful to them for our trip to that Rolling Stones Concert.”

Sei politisch! Setze ein Zeichen! Dieses Credo scheint ein treibender Motor der gegenwärtigen Kunstproduktion zu sein. Ob auf Messen, Biennalen oder in Museen: Kunst mit politischen und ethischen Botschaften erzielt eine maximale Aufmerksamkeit, sublimiert die Kunstwelt und lässt Künstlerkarrieren befeuern. Hoch im Kurs sind Themen wie Rechtspopulismus, Donald Trump, Demokratie und die Flüchtlingskrise. Gleichzeitig scheint die künstlerische Freiheit durch Shitstorms und eine neue „Political Correctness“ zu schwinden. Welche Folgen und Gefahren entstehen hierdurch? Wie stellt man Qualitätsmerkmale in Bezug auf politische Kunst auf? Gibt es „linke“ Kunstwerke, die sich auch für rechtspopulistische Weltbilder auslegen lassen? In diesem Themenband wird in Essays diesen Fragen nachgegangen, Gespräche mit Aktivisten, einem Regisseur, sowie Künstlern diskutieren die Rolle der Kunst zwischen Aktivismus, Aufklärung und Engagement. Vor der Omnipräsenz der politischen Kunst stellt sich schließlich die Frage: Kann politische Kunst überhaupt (noch) Menschen beeinflussen? Denn: Nicht jedes politische Zeichen ist auch gleich ein gutes Kunstwerk.
