Landscape Lecture: Gert-Jan Wisse of Bureau B+B

Gert-Jan Wisse of Bureau B+B presented Objets Trouvés (joint venture by Bureau B+B and H+N+S , Netherlands), project that won LILA 2019 in Public Projects Category Ex-Aequo. See the submitted presentation here: http://landezine-award.com/objets-tro... From the jury statement: The project Objets Trouvés convinces with outstanding artistic quality and visible historical awareness. Moving the bunker from its ancestral place and letting it re-appear in a new one is both astonishing and effective. This blunt dislocation, which first reacts to infrastructural requirements and finally turns the bunker into a ready-made, creates a whole new quality of visual perception. It is in this aesthetic space of resonance, where contemporary infrastructure development ultimately becomes conceivable as a possible instalment of the European warfare history. Consequently, the actual traces of history are kept visible with a genuine purpose – although this required such an action as moving a bunker. As a bold and even radical gesture, the project inscribes itself in the infusible tension between past, present, and future on the one hand, and between absence and presence on the other. In doing so, it formulates a notable reference point for the contemporary discipline of landscape architecture as an artistically informed cultural practice.
