Landscape is an art of the present, fundamental to how we shape and understand both the built and natural environments. In this event chaired by art critic Richard Cork, internationally acclaimed landscape and urban designer, Diana Balmori, proposes a twenty-five-point Landscape Manifesto that seeks to ‘realign’ landscape’s role as a transformative and potentially transgressive art. She presents the Manifesto alongside specially devised work of Japanese video artist Mami Kosemura and a response by Eric Parry RA.
