ISSN 1666-6836 El Parque Nacional Iguazú en clave soberana: el rol de Thays en la imagen de la Argentina Ximena A. Carreras Doallo*1 Resumen Jules Charles Thays llegó de Francia a la Argentina y construyó parques y plazas públicas en todo el país, así como jardines de estancias y de residencias. El urbanista también estuvo al frente de la Dirección de Parques y Paseos de Buenos Aires por más de dos décadas (1891- 1913). Además, proyectó la creación del Parque Nacional Iguazú, que se realizó en 1934, meses después que el jardinero mayor de Buenos Aires falleciera. Lo hizo para proteger la selva misionera subtropical, desarrollar la región, desde lo económico y lo socio-cultural, y afianzar la imagen de belleza panorámica. Su proyecto consolidó la soberanía nacional en la zona de frontera; permitió el avance de la energía hidráulica y facilitó el turismo al tiempo que la instalación de un casco urbano poblado con diseño radial. El presente trabajo indaga sobre el modo en que Thays fortaleció una representación de la propia nación mediante la protección del patrimonio natural, en particular a través de las ideas para el Parque Iguazú. Palabras clave: Parque Nacional Iguazú - naturaleza - Thays - representaciones - nación Abstract Jules Charles Thays was born in France, he came to Argentina to build parks all around the country as well as gardens for cottages and family residences.

The Role of Historical Gardens in City Development – from Private Garden to Public Park. E. F. André Heritage Case Study
Scientific Journal of Latvia University of Agriculture Landscape Architecture and Art, Volume 5, Number 5 The role of historical gardens in city development – from private garden to public park. E. F. André heritage case study Vaiva Deveikiene, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University Abstract. The paper provides a review of the creation of a French landscape architect Édouard André (1840–1911) and his collaborators from André’s Agency, such as his son René André (1867–1942), Jules Buyssens (1872–1958) and others in four manors of the noble family Tyszkiewicz in Lithuania. The French tradition of public and private parks was a good example how to create parks in Lithuanian landscape. E. André was a leading and famous French landscape architect and horticulturist, a theoretician of the art of parks, a writer, and an editor of the late 19th century. André and his collaborators visited Lithuania at the end of 19th century, in 1897–1899. Using the extraordinary qualities of natural landscape, including in the spatial composition natural watercourses and woods, choosing indigenous plants and implementing they own artistic rules to earthwork gardens to create viewpoints, André and his collaborators created unusual compositions that had been widely praised and admired in those days. The sustainability of historical green spaces of Traku Voke and Palanga in urban structure of Vilnius City and Palanga city is analysed in this article. Sustainable development of public greenery should be exposed as an example in Lithuania as well. Keywords: Edouard André, Lithuania, Historical Park, Public Park. Introduction Research works that were started more than viewpoints, E. André and his collaborators created 20 years ago have inspired various papers and unusual compositions that had been widely praised presentations, publications and exhibitions about and admired in those days in Lithuania. -

Klorane Institute and Pierre Fabre Argentina Botanic Gardens
Press Communiqué 15 July 2015 Klorane Institute and Pierre Fabre Argentina of the French pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics giant Pierre Fabre join forces with the world’s largest network dedicated to plant conservation – Botanic Gardens Conservation International, United Kingdom, and Carlos Thays Botanic Garden, Buenos Aires to boost conservation and public awareness of Argentina’s remarkable native medicinal flora Yungas vegetation, northern Argentina Yungas San Franciso, Jujuy. Proyungas Image Bank. Photo: Jose Luis Rodrigues Argentina Concerted action to conserve Argentina’s medicinal plant heritage A new international partnership has formed, bringing together Klorane Institute, France, Pierre Fabre Dermo-Cosmétique, Argentina, Carlos Thays Botanic Garden, Buenos Aires, Argentina (JBCT) and Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) in order to enhance and promote greater knowledge of Argentina’s medicinal flora and implement ex and in situ conservation measures. A threatened diversity As one of the world’s mega-biodiverse nations, Argentina is home to a wealth of medicinal plants. There are at least as many as 1,500 native species – yet, beyond the country’s borders, little is known of this national botanical treasure and its utilisation, says Graciela Barreiro, Director of Carlos Thays Botanic Garden in Buenos Aires. Likewise, concerted national and international efforts remain limited to promote integrated conservation action for some of Argentina’s most endangered and rare medicinal plant species and the habitats in which they occur. Dry Chaco – a characteristic habitat in Argentina with an abounding medicinal plant diversity; habitat of Maytenus viscifolia. Departamento La Viña, Provincia de Salta. Photo: Daniel Taranto Loss of natural habitat resulting from expansion of agriculture, urbanisation, mining as well as overexploitation of wild resources and environmental pollution are major factors driving the steady decline of Argentina’s medicinal plants. -

Miami , Flori daBuenos Aires, Argentina Overview Introduction Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a wonderful combination of sleek skyscrapers and past grandeur, a collision of the ultrachic and tumbledown. Still, there has always been an undercurrent of melancholy in B.A. (as it is affectionately known by expats who call Buenos Aires home), which may help explain residents' devotion to that bittersweet expression of popular culture in Argentina, the tango. Still performed—albeit much less frequently now—in the streets and cafes, the tango has a romantic and nostalgic nature that is emblematic of Buenos Aires itself. Travel to Buenos Aires is popular, especially with stops in the neighborhoods of San Telmo, Palermo— and each of its colorful smaller divisions—and the array of plazas that help make up Buenos Aires tours. Highlights Sights—Inspect the art-nouveau and art-deco architecture along Avenida de Mayo; see the "glorious dead" in the Cementerio de la Recoleta and the gorgeously chic at bars and cafes in the same neighborhood; shop for antiques and see the tango dancers at Plaza Dorrego and the San Telmo Street Fair on Sunday; tour the old port district of La Boca and the colorful houses along its Caminito street; cheer at a soccer match between hometown rivals Boca Juniors and River Plate (for the very adventurous only). Museums—Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA: Coleccion Costantini); Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes; Museo Municipal de Arte Hispano-Americano Isaac Fernandez Blanco; Museo Historico Nacional; Museo de la Pasion Boquense (Boca football); one of two tango museums: Museo Casa Carlos Gardel or Museo Mundial del Tango. -

Buenos Aires: a Creative City?
Buenos Aires: A Creative City? November 2016 Prepared by the Creative Class Group Forward from Richard Florida Buenos Aires has been through a lot of transformations in its history. It started as a colonial outpost in a rural hinterland and grew into the industrial, financial, and commercial capital of a nation. Now, as Argentina enters a new period of stability, prosperity, and growth, it is shaping up as a leader in the post-industrial creative economy. Like every big city, Buenos Aires faces vexing challenges, among them poverty and brain drain. Fortunately, it has an incredible set of assets in its great universities, a government that is prepared to make the investments in quality of place that it needs—and most importantly of all, a diverse, dynamic, and highly-creative citizenry. If any global city is well-positioned to make the most of an Art Basel Cities, it is Buenos Aires. 2 Executive Summary Simply put, how well does Buenos Aires measure up as a global creative hub? What are its strengths and weaknesses according to the Creative Class Group’s proprietary metrics for urban creativity? How can the city use Art Basel to help cement its status as an emerging creative hub while bolstering its on-going place-making efforts? In the report that follows, we address these questions and offer our key findings and recommendations. Buenos Aires’ Creative Assets and Industries Key findings: • Buenos Aires has 142,213 jobs in creative industries (design, technology, audio-visual, and arts and culture) and creative employment is growing at a faster rate than overall employment for the city. -

BUENOS AIRES ARGENTINA uenos Aires is like a love Bthat one can never forget… From the tango music echoing down the cobblestone streets of San Telmo to the delicious smells and tastes of Argentine beef asados and Malbec wines, there is something undeniably seductive about Buenos Aires. Located on the Río de la Plata on the South American east coast of Argentina, Buenos Aires is the country’s largest metropolitan area with over thirteen million porteños (people of the port). The port’s history is HISTORY marked by an influx of millions of immigrants during Argentine poet Jorge Luis Borges once wrote, “I find it hard to believe the 19th and 20th centuries, making Buenos Aires a Buenos Aires ever had a beginning”.

The Climate Change Alliance of Botanic Gardens Continues to Flourish
Only Two Years On - the Climate Change Alliance of Botanic Gardens continues to Flourish Dear Colleagues, What a world changing year that has confronted us! The Covid19 pandemic has impacted us personally and the management of so many arboreta, botanic gardens and natural landscapes. Sadly, some have lost their lives, had their health severely affected or have known others to suffer in this way. Many have lost employment benefits, had to deal with reduced staffing and visitation, experience severe losses of revenue, and through all of this, work so hard to safeguard their living collections. It is our earnest desire that the New Year will bring renewed hope and restored conditions for you all. We are reminded of the Principles and Values of the Alliance that is based on the Living Systems of the landscapes that we are privileged to care for. • Self-organisation around a shared purpose • Recruit for and celebrate diversity • Maintain momentum and energy flows • Nurture relationships • Plan for resilience and adaptability We have all needed to substantially lean on these principles to move forward against difficult times. The evidence of this is in the significant growth of the Alliance and the emerging initiatives and projects as outlined further on. 1. Climate Change Alliance Membership There has been an absolute, exciting surge in interest and membership over the last 12 months. We welcomed 276 new members (organisational and associate members) from 75 countries and cultures across the globe to build on our Principle: Recruit for and celebrate diversity Membership as of December 2019 Membership as of December 2020 Commended for their support are peak botanical industry bodies: Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI), Botanic Gardens of Australia and New Zealand (BGANZ), International Association of Botanic Gardens (IABG) and the American Public Gardens Association (APGA).
