Landscape and Garden Architecture 　　"21st Century Garden Art” presents the latest innovations, as well as the most interesting persons setting the pace for landscape and garden architecture. We portray garden artists who, by respecting national traditions as well as the unique nature and character of the local topography, have succeeded in establishing a living relationship between their gardens and the realities of modern culture. 　　In the light of these challenges: What forms can gardens be expected to take in the 21st century? And, which functions must a present day garden fulfill? In sum, the age-old dilemma: How can human culture be reconciled to the natural environment? And, can modern mankind regain its lost Paradise? 　　The unique personalities and the varying strategies of the diverse artists portrayed, and, even more so, the gardens themselves demonstrate the remarkable variety of "21st Century Garden Art.”

In this four and a half hour documentary or filmic tavelogue, Ulrike Ottinger tries to impart new ways of seeing a foreign culture. "In my previous films I have dealt with the themes of exoticism, minorities and their differing role behaviour within their own culture. Now I am interested in expanding this theme, in getting to know a 'real exoticism' in a foreign land and in a different culture. I am attempting to conduct a visual discourse with my camera about exoticism as a question of point-of-view. 　　In making the film, I was influenced by Chinese naturepainting: by the use of the scroll, which not only demands a different method of painting, but a different way of viewing - rolling out the scroll, focusing in on details, wandering to and fro, viewing piecemeal. So if I was filming a market square, for example, I'd pan very slowly and steadily across the square, rather than trying to capture the image in toto. 　　– Ulrike Ottinger
