The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF) has announced a call for nominations for Landslide, the foundation’s annual thematic report about threatened and at-risk landscapes. Landslide 2022: The Olmsted Design Legacy, timed to the bicentennial of the birth of Frederick Law Olmsted, Sr. (1822-1903), widely hailed as the father of landscape architecture, will focus on landscapes designed by Olmsted, Sr. and his successor firms that are now threatened or at-risk. The more than century-long Olmsted legacy begins in the mid-1850s with the work of Olmsted Sr., and continues with John Charles Olmsted (1852-1920), and Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. (1870-1957). The report will be complemented by an online exhibition that will include newly commissioned photographs and historical images, site plans, other archival materials, and video interviews. The deadline for nominations is June 17, 2022. Questions or Landslide nominations can be submitted to Nord Wennerstrom at nord@tclf.org.
Landscape Architecture Magazine is the Landslide media partner.
