“From Scenography to Landscape Design and back again” – Liesbeth Groot Nibbelink (UU) and Anne Karin ten Bosch

This session is focused on an artistic research project by curator and scenographer Anne Karin ten Bosch, in which she examines how scenography can inspire (urban) landscape design and vice versa. The project is embedded in the two-year MA programme in Design at the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam, and specifically focuses on practices of placemaking in Rotterdam, and on learning from environments by travelling through them. Liesbeth Groot Nibbelink is involved as a dramaturg, adviser and ‘source sharer’. Both are interested in knowledge exchange beyond institutional borders, in the value of frayed edges in scenography and landscape design, and in open-ended, essayistic modes of conversation and collaboration.In this session Groot and ten Bosch will share their understanding of expanded scenography and reflect on the distinct qualities of scenographic sensitivity that may inform landscape design and urban planning, and explore how research methods derived from urban/landscape design may help to articulate and excavate scenographic knowledge. In view of these translation processes, they will address spatial affects and material relations, reflect on the role of scale and that of triviality, and explore methods of drawing, the ‘soft atlas’ and performative mapping. Ultimately, they aim to raise a discussion on the value of frayed edges in urban environments.Participants will be actively involved in discussion and half-way in the session will also be invited to participate in a small mapping exercise, in the vicinity of their laptop with a possibility to move outside.Suggested Reading<ul><li>Ed Wall (2011), “Infrastructural form, interstitial spaces and informal acts.” In: (eds.)
