{{Use Australian English|date=December 2013}}{{Use dmy dates|date=December 2013}}Richard Weller is an Australian landscape architect and academic. He is Professor and Chair of Landscape Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, having succeeded James Corner in 2013.[1] Weller also holds the Martin and Margy Meyerson Chair of Urbanism at the University of Pennsylvania,[2] is on the Board of Directors of the Landscape Architecture Foundation, Washington D.C.,[3] and is Creative Director of LA+ Interdisciplinary Journal of Landscape Architecture.[4] He has been Winthrop Professor of Landscape Architecture at the University of Western Australia,[5][6] and director of the Australian Urban Design Research Centre (AUDRC).[7][8] He has received a number of awards for teaching excellence including a 2012 national citation "for sustained commitment to inspiring and enabling students to engage creatively and critically with complex design problems".[9] In 2017, and again in 2018, Weller was named by DesignIntelligence as one of the "25 most-admired educators" based on a comprehensive survey across the US design industry. “Weller demonstrates an intense engagement and commitment to students’ academic and professional careers,” according to the report. “He is advancing the profession through a critical look at past and current issues in ecology and design . . . shows humility and humanity in a challenging profession, and has the ability to always call us back to the biggest ideas that design needs to address."[10][11]

Works

Weller is a landscape architect and former co-director (with Vladimir Sitta) of Australian landscape architecture firm Room 4.1.3. whose built projects include the "Garden of Australian Dreams"[12] at the National Museum of Australia in Canberra, ACT. The built garden attracted controversy for its radical design.[13][14] He is also identified as a major proponent for the Elizabeth Quay project in Perth, Western Australia, and this can be found in the contents of Boomtown where he uses quotes from various supporters and detractors of the project.[15][16]

Weller's design work has been exhibited in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney (1998) as a finalist in the Seppelt Australian Art Awards.[17] His work has also been exhibited in the Venice Biennale (2004), the MAXXI Gallery in Rome (2016), the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston (2017), and the Canadian Design Museum. In 2002 his design was selected as a finalist in the Pentagon Memorial competition in Washington, D.C.[18] and in 2005 he was a finalist in the Tsunami Memorial competition in Thailand.[19] His early work (1990 to 1995) as consultant to Berlin landscape architecture firm Muller, Knippschild Wehberg (now Lützow 7) was heavily awarded in European design competitions.[20]

Research and Publications

Weller gave the Frederick Law Olmsted Memorial Lecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design in 2011[21] and has been a regular commentator on planning and design issues.[22][23] He is author of five books and over 100 single-authored papers.[24] His publications include:

  • Room 4.1.3: Innovations in Landscape Architecture (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2005)[25]
  • "An Art of Instrumentality: Thinking Through Landscape Urbanism" in Charles Waldheim (ed), The Landscape Urbanism Reader (Princeton Architectural Press, 2006)
  • Boomtown 2050: Scenarios for a Rapidly Growing City (University of Western Australia Press, 2009)[26]
  • Made in Australia: The Future of Australian Cities (UWA Publishing, 2013)[27]
  • The Atlas for the End of the World (2017), an ASLA award-winning website which audits the status of land use and urbanization in the most critically endangered bioregions on Earth.[28]
