BIENNALE OF LANDSCAPE URBANISM 2010
The Biennale of Landscape Urbanism opened on Saturday 25 September. Ed joined the opening event in Bat-Yam, Israel following several days of finalizing the Roaming Forest project with Yael Bar Maor.
Timing 2010, the Biennale of Landscape Urbanism, explores the tension between the temporary and the permanent and between the planned and the experienced. This municipal-led initiative, curated by Yael Moria-Klain and Sigal Barnir, offers the city of Bat-Yam as a laboratory for examining alternative uses for urban space. Landscape architects, artists and architects were invited to reinvent the spaces, processes and conditions that give rise to conditions of temporality in the city.
This project is a collaboration with Yael Bar Maor and Mike Dring. Selected and built for the Biennale of Landscape Urbanism, the Roaming Forest is an exploration of adaptation and temporality in the public realm of the city.
