日本とオーストラリアのランドスケープ・アーキテクトは、それぞれの地域における文化的・生態学的な特性に応じたデザインを創造しています。今回の二か国語での展示会では、それらの革新的なデザインにおける戦路を探求します。
kudan houseの敷地全体に広がるこの展示会では、受賞歴を誇るデザイナーによる8つの作品を臨場感溢れる形で体験できます。オーディオビジュアルを駆使しながら、デザイナーへのインタビューや現地の映像、さらに図面を組み合わせることにより、これらのデザイナーが環境・経済・文化的な未来にいかに貢献しているのかを明らかにしています。
豪日交流基金、メルボルン大学、RMIT大学の助成によるこの展示会は、異文化に焦点を当てながらオーストラリアと日本のランドスケープ・アーキテクチャーへの理解と提示の仕方を再考しています。さらに、両国のランドスケープ・アーキテクト12人との対話を通じて、専門家としての意識や文化的アイデンティティの問題、地方のプロジェクトにおけるデザインの可能性、グローバルなつながりに対する役割など、実務に直面した重要な問題を探究します。
Landscape Architects as Changemakers
Landscape Architects as Changemakers, an exhibition on Japanese and Australian landscape architects, will be held at kudan house between November 18 and November 26, 2023.
This bi-lingual exhibition investigates the tactics and strategies used by Japanese and Australian landscape architects to implement innovative design outcomes that respond to the cultural and ecological specificity of their regions.
Spread throughout Tokyo's unique Kudan House, the exhibition offers an immersive experience of eight landscape projects by award-winning designers. Working with audio-visual media, the exhibition mixes designer interviews, site footage and drawings to reveal how these designers achieve outcomes that positively contribute to environmental, economic, and cultural futures.
Funded by the Australia-Japan Foundation, University of Melbourne and RMIT University, the exhibition draws on cross-cultural reflections to rethink the way that
Australian and Japanese landscape architecture is understood and presented. Conversations with a further twelve Australian and Japanese landscape architects explore critical issues facing practice including questions of professional and cultural identity, the design possibilities of working outside the city and the role of global connections.
The opening event will be held on November 18, and the panel discussion event with Australian and Japanese landscape architects will be held on November 26 (free events, ticket registration essential).
The exhibition is free, however, ticket reservation is required.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at the exhibition.
This exhibition has been generously supported by Toho Leo Co. and the Japan Landscape Architects Union.

Panel Discussion / Talk Session:
Australia and Japan are countries where landscape qualities are celebrated and revered. Yet this does not mean that practising landscape architecture is always smooth sailing. Join us for a conversation about what it means to be a contemporary landscape architect in Japan and Australia. What can we learn from each other? What qualities of practice emerge from our very different cultural, economic and ecological contexts?
