Key topics include:
• temporary gardens in 1970s avant-garde art and 1980s public art;
• temporary gardens as opportunities to work with live processes, practice
inclusion, and explore concepts of social justice and ecology;
• temporary gardens to redefine the vocabulary of garden design; and
• temporary gardens in tactical urbanism.
The book comprehensively decodifies the full range of ephemeral gardens: uprooted, mobile, itinerant, movable, postmodern, installation, exhibited, conceptual, theme, pop-up, guerrilla, grassroots, meanwhile, interim, provisional, activist, community, and parklet.
Beyond physical duration, time-focused design in gardens affects the entire process of conceiving, building, experiencing, and managing green spaces; using short-term formats, anyone can invent, trial, and experiment in a condensed experience of landscape.
The temporary garden emerges as critical cultural ground for the discourse in landscape architecture, art, ephemeral urbanism, and in urban, landscape, and garden design. It is inspirational reading for designers and students alike.
