An exploration of the Alpine region' s dynamic topography, conceived for the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale. For How Will We Live Together, VOGT Landscape Architects has collaborated with the Chair of Gunther Vogt at ETH Zurich, Institute of Landscape and Urban Studies on a publication that excavates the dynamic landscape of the Alpine region, with a particular focus on hydrological, biological and geological aspects of the topography. Characterised by a great diversity in all spatial dimensions and qualities, the Alps are not a stable structure, but a dynamic and sensitive organism, defined at the same time by intensive cultivation by humankind. Here, boundaries are ceaselessly overcome and continuously shifted. Moving Borders documents the contributions at the Biennale exploring the nature of alpine topography and complements them with scientific essays, artistic works and comprehensive photographs taken during field trips to the Alps. AUTHOR: Thomas Kissling studied architecture at the ETH Zurich and is a research associate at the Chair of Prof. Gunther Vogt at the ETH Zurich since 2010. With essays by Conradin Burga, Markus Ritter, Gunther Vogt, Rolf Weingartner. With contributions by Julian Charriere, Allessandra Chemollo, Gerda Steiner, Joerg Lenzlinger. 80 illustrations
Accompanying the contributions of Vogt Landscape Architects and the Chair of Gu nther Vogt, ETH Zurich, at the 17th Venice architecture biennial. A differentiated study of the geological, hydrological and biological dynamics of the Alpine region.
