Dear colleges,

Given the success of the 1st European Landscape Biennial, held in April 1999, with more than 400 design projects and 250 professionals attending its symposium, it is our pleasure to inform you that the Association of Architects of Catalonia (COAC), together with the Master's Program in Landscape Architecture of the Department of Urban and Regional Planning (DUOT) of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), and the Schools of Architecture of Barcelona (ETSAB) and Vallès (ETSAV) are organising the 2nd European Landscape Biennial to be held in Barcelona on April 19-21, 2001.

The aim of the 2nd Biennial is to continue the debate begun at the 1st Biennial on the most important recent European projects and research work in Landscape. The Biennial will include exhibitions, conferences, presentations and round tables to be organised during three days around a symposium. A catalogue with the landscape projects exposed will be published, and will be used for the selection of the 2nd Rosa Barba European Landscape Award.

The Organising Committee of the 2nd Biennial is currently preparing the selection of projects. Therefore, if you are interested in showing your work, please send us information on recent projects (1996-2000) you consider of interest for the Biennial, following the instructions explained in the Technical Dossier.

Please send us the documentation as soon as possible - before February 15th - so that your work is duly represented when the final selection is made.

If you want to continue receiving information on the Biennial, please fill out the form. We look forward to receiving any contributions, ideas or suggestions you may have.

Yours faithfully.
