The Art of the Landscape and the Architect Presented by Michael G. Imber, FAIA
This talk explores the meaning of landscape and culture through painting. Landscape painting has been much more than a literal capture of a place. Painting embodies both cultural and personal memories important to understanding the meaning and spirit of a landscape to its people; including historical, socio-economical, political and even religious views.  Architects have traditionally used drawing and painting to increase their own understanding of culture and place, and architects today can create a more informed, sustainable, meaningful and lasting architecture by better knowing a place through their own drawing and painting.
