Abstract
Landscape architecture is a design profession with unique potential for stimulating dialogue with contemporary cultural issues of change, open-endedness, and complexity. An inspiring metaphor for this dialogue is the concept of the fold as interpreted by Gilles Deleuze in his 1993 book, The Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque. He traced the concept back to the Baroque—when some transformations to garden art had already been made—and concluded that a contemporary interpretation of the fold, which emphasizes the transmutation of formal objects into temporal unities, could be of similar inspiration today. Peter Eisenman and Laurie Olin's Rebstockpark in Frankfurt am Main and Charles Jencks and Maggie Keswick's Garden of Cosmic Speculation are two endeavors that have made the transition from concept to project in distinct, but formalistic and limited ways. Alternate models within contemporary landscape architecture show the potential of the discipline for working with the fold in a more rigorously conceptual way through continually infolding and unfolding events as opposed to designing static forms.
