The Picturesque in Modernity: object image and architecture

风景如画的想法出现在18世纪是比较广为人知的.然而，风景画的更长历史，直到现在它的使用，还没有被研究过。本项目建议描述构成风景画后期历史的关键概念和技术。与18世纪风景画是一种普通的抽象艺术的说法相反，这段更长的历史将表明，风景画更好地被理解为建筑和视觉艺术之间的学科关系。该项目将与建筑学作为一门艺术学科的历史地位相关。在更广泛的层面上，该项目将对目前图像和物体概念化方面的问题具有重要意义，包括在虚拟环境中出现的问题，这些问题首先出现在风景画中。

The idea of the picturesque its emergence in the eighteenth century are relatively well known. However, the longer history of the picturesque, through to its use in the present, has not been studied. This Project proposes to describe the key concepts and techniques that constitute the latter history of the picturesque. Against claims that the eighteenth century picturesque was a generic and abstract art, this longer history will show that the picturesque is better understood as an intra-disciplinary relation of architecture and the visual arts. The Project will be of relevance to issues of the historical status of architecture as an art discipline. At a more general level, the Project will be of significance in present issues in the conceptualization of images and objects, including those that arise in virtual environments, issues which first arose in the picturesque.
