Abstract

Ingénieur-architecte diplômé de l’université de Louvain, formé au paysagisme à l’université de Genève, Bas Smets dirige une agence spécialisée dans la conception de stratégies paysagères et l’aménagement d’espaces publics. Fondé à Bruxelles en 2007, le Bureau Bas Smets emploie aujourd’hui quinze architectes et paysagistes, et réalise des projets à toutes les échelles, du développement territorial aux infrastructures, et de l’aménagement de centres urbains aux jardins.Bas Smets enseigne le paysagisme à l’école d’architecture de La Cambre à Bruxelles, et à l’École spéciale d’architecture à Paris, et il fut lauréat en 2008 des ‘Nouveaux Albums des Jeunes Architectes et Paysagistes’. Ses projets ont fait l’objet d’une première exposition personnelle en 2013-2014, qui fut montrée au International Arts Campus de Singel à Anvers, au Palais des beaux-arts de Charleroi, et au centre d’architecture Arc-en-rêve à Bordeaux. En tant que paysagiste, Bas Smets utilise la photo à la fois comme outil du projet, et dans ses expositions. Les deux entretiens menés avec lui nous ont permis d’en savoir plus sur sa pratique de la photographie, qui met en œuvre des moyens simples (iPhone) mais développe une dimension plus complexe sous la forme de montages qu’il appelle des « atlas ». À l’opposé de la photographie d’architecture professionnelle, Bas Smets expérimente des dispositifs qui rendent compte de la dimension du temps et des limites floues du projet de paysage. "This book revolves around five landscape projects. Each one is presented as a story about transforming a land - given terrain - into a 'landscape' and altering its perception".

Abstract

The use of the word "landscape" to describe the formation and infrastructure of cities seems to express contemporary preoccupations with the postindustrial urban condition. The Industrial Revolution is often seen as a turning point in the emergence of the urban landscape of the modern metropolis, and the large city as commonly experienced today in the world is certainly dependent on a range of recent (or quite recent) breakthroughs in construction technology, climate control, communication, and transportation. In this view, urban landscapes are a historically late development and are, therefore, seen to embody an essentially modern and Western concept. But features associated with contemporary urban landscapes-most notably the forms of human adaptation to and reshaping of the sites where cities develop and expand-can also be found in preindustrial contexts in different time periods and geographical regions. Preindustrial urban settlements generally occupied land that had been used for other, mostly productive, purposes, and their development involved complex and dynamic relationships with the management of natural resources. Such cities are traditionally studied as the centers of commerce, trade, and artisan production as well as the seats of secular and religious authorities; the essays in this volume to examine how the original clusters of agrarian communities evolved into urban formations. --
