Since its first edition, the European Landscape Biennial has expressed its desire to intently study and discuss landscape interventions, as much from the perspective of landscape architecture as from other disciplines that are linked to its study and evolution.

The Biennial has been consolidated on a European scale in its six previous editions—“Remaking Landscapes” (1999), “Gardens in Arms” (2001), “Only with Nature” (2003), “Landscape: a Product / a Production” (2006)— Storm & stress (2008), “Liquid
Landscape” (2010) and "Biennial versus Biennial" (2012) . However, by the hand of its international Rosa Barba landscape prize, sponsored by Banc de Sabadell, this edition will broaden its scope to worl wide contemporary international landscapes architecture.

Barcelona will open itself to international landscape architecture in a symposium adapted to contemporary circumstances. This symposium will last three days and will include talks, presentations by those finalists competing for the Rosa Barba Landscape Prize, sponsored by Banc de Sabadell, papers, roundtable discussions, exhibitions and samples from which we will be able to track and discuss the evolution of landscape architecture world wide.

8th European Landscape Biennial

A LANDSCAPE FOR YOU

Due to our circumstances most territorial and cultural disciplines are ranging from anxiety and emergence. Thus, the VIII Biennial of Landscape Barcelona claims to be both a catalyst for doubt and a driver to illusions and changes in the field of Landscape Architecture.

The announcing of this year’s event suggests  interest in discovering new ways of action, while exploring inhospitable areas and guiding discussion towards  rethinking old certainties and  providing new sensitivities certitudes. A landscape for you wants to be present at the discussion of what should be the landscape design and planning nowadays , aiming to provide a plausible (and exciting) future.
