Description
Summary:This article does not propose to explain the theoretical approach and practice of Bernard Lassus but it aims to redraw its genesis. At the heart of the “demeasurable”, the quality of landscape to extend itself further than its real surface, the article proposes through a movement playing between the experiences and concepts, which lead to an open piece, to follow the career of this singular landscaper. This text reminds that landscape eludes every definition. Constituted with the interrelations of its component elements, the landscape, or better "a" landscape refers to the hypothesis that the perception raises on the environment. Based on the fundamental experience on light, color and visibility of the objects, referring to the practice of perception and imagination, Bernard Lassus has elaborated the concepts of trames, belvedere or minimal intervention. Then, fulfilled by new visual and tactile experimentations and by the development of a sort of vernacular landscapism and its actors "landscaper Inhabitant", his concepts have again evolved. These evolutions lead Bernard Lassus to express his personal conception of landscape project, the aesthetic and the important ethical character of it. The article concludes on what should be a public policy on landscape, in order to be authentically democratic.
