The Brock Review Volume 10 (2008) © Brock University Greenscape as Screenscape: The Cinematic Urban Garden 1 Nina Gerlach Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Abstract : The relationship between city and garden appears in many feature films in order to visualize narrative dualisms. In particular, the character of the boundary - as a fundamental medial characteristic of gardens - determines the meaning of the represented space. According to the Western representation of ideal places and the historically-developed antagonism of city and garden, the boundary defines the latter as the diametrically opposed utopian antithesis to urban life. This antagonism is used, for example, in The Garden of the Finzi-Continis (1970) in the political context of World War II, or as in Being There (1979), embedded in a philosophical discourse centered on Voltaire and Sartre. The dystopian city of Los Angeles in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner (1982) lacks space not only for gardens, but for any natural environment in general. The only garden that remains, exists as a kind of Paradise Lost , a placeless topos with a unicorn, banished into and limited by the world of imagination of the protagonist. As this example indicates, the cinematic garden and particularly the more specialized topic of the relationship between the garden and the city within cinema is still an under-examined realm of the research of garden history.2 In cinematic genres where the city is usually presented as the essential character -- such as in Neorealism, Film Noir, and dystopian science fiction -- garden space is hardly discovered. 3 These types of films frequently transport an extremely negative connotation of the city. -

Modern Architecture and Spatial Experiences in Film
Modern Architecture and Spatial Experiences in Film Rizka Fitri Ridayanti Advisor: Diane Wildsmith Architecture International Program Faculty of Engineering University of Indonesia ABSTRACT Architecture and film in this modern era are inseparable concerning the generation of perceptual spaces. Architecture is built in and around spaces, which may provide the setting for a film, whereas film stands as a two-dimensional medium to explore and present architecture as a narrative framework. Architecture is a fundamental component in order that film can deliver its narrative. This paper discusses how architectural representation is conveyed to encase the spatial narrative of a film and the important role they hold in conveying messages, underlying narratives, and the spatial experiences in a film. It discusses the workings of real to reel, borrowing Nezar AlSayyad‟s term in reference to the reality and the cinema, using the modern architecture in Jacques Tati‟s Playtime (1967) as a case in point. Architecture in the real and reel stand as the main focuses of this paper. Finally, it observes the concept of reel to real, how the architecture and film can affect our perspectives in life and be used as parameters for design. Keywords: architecture; architectural representation; film; narrative; space INTRODUCTION Since the late 19th century, film developed as a medium that has allowed increased awareness and appreciation of the 3D representation of architecture as well as urban spaces.1 Film captures motions, sounds, and sequential narratives of a city‟s architecture that allows an experience of 3D architectural spaces through 2D medium. No other medium has had the power to present an exploration of real or virtual 3D architectural spaces as boundlessly as film. -
