As an effective carrier of human material culture, urban landscape environment not only carries the aesthetic thinking of the different background for their own living environment, as well as sustenance for the spiritual pursuit of the ideal home. Back in history, we can easily find, began in the1920s, modern Western landscape design to the French avant-garde garden in the early concept exploration, the second during World War II style of formation as well as more than a decade after the war, the rapid period of development after the1970s ushered in a period of reflection and change: landscape design ideas is the broader, more diverse techniques of modern Western landscape design into a diversified development stage, a "modernist" appeared. This transformation of the modern Western landscape design, not only a profound impact on the course of development of the culture of contemporary Western landscape, but also a subtle influence on the urban landscape, including China, with an oriental background environment development. With the gradual decline of Western modernist landscape, a large number of the landscape works of the contemporary cultural characteristics and aesthetic orientation gradually boarded the stage of the times. These works to the people of many different modernist landscape aesthetic experience, a profound impact on the established principles of landscape understanding and judgment, and the Western modernist landscape to changes in the contemporary landscape has also become a historical necessity. As a theoretical response to this fact, the philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn’s paradigm shift theory as a starting point, dynamic investigation of the design development process of the Western landscape since the1970s, exploring the contemporary Western landscape aesthetic paradigm shift. The historical trajectory and development context, and as a basis for analysis and summary of the contemporary Western landscape paintings represent a unique aesthetic characterization and spiritual aspirations. Its purpose is to understand and grasp the overall aesthetic picture of colorful contemporary Western landscape, and thus can learn theoretical and practical basis for our absorption in the context of rapid urbanization and the introduction of the culture of contemporary Western landscape. The full dissertation is divided into six chapters, the main research contents are as follows:The first chapter and second chapter as a whole chapter of the theoretical basis of the logical starting point, this section be the interpretation of the basic concepts on the basis of defined area of research and technology roadmap of the paper, is about contemporary Western landscape since the last century,70-80since the design-led the ideologically conversion, as an aesthetic landscape conversion course. Abstract expression characteristics in the process, focus on spatial effects and functional requirements of the modern landscape giving way to more concerned about the cultural and ecological significance of the landscape places, and be expressed by means of a variety of design techniques of contemporary landscape design. History on the basis of related discussion, the concept of resolution and Urban Landscapes, summed up summed up the course of development of the modern landscape design, and thus laid the discourse of the contemporary landscape. At the same time, through the introduction of "beauty" concept with the concept of "history", as defined in this article on landscape aesthetic judgment, that the aesthetic experience as the point of intervention, the emphasis on the landscape in the contemporary social and cultural context of the aesthetic aims to the development of evolution.Chapter III of the development from the socio-economic, cultural and technical point of view, discusses the contemporary Western urban landscape aesthetic paradigm shift mechanism. This article from the aesthetic deficiencies of the landscape ecological concept of dominant start to review the course of development of the contemporary Western city landscape art and human culture. The fact that a combination of historical research, the paper argues that contemporary western landscape design fields in the related disciplines of architecture, planning and art design, and the multiple roles of its design philosophy and aesthetic experience has undergone a profound change: in the design form, reflecting the unprecedented complex multi-orientation; in theoretical form, reflecting the concern of ecological and cultural areas. Aesthetic paradigm shift is not an "of course, occur," the natural evolution process is not entirely follow the linear development of context-or-nothing, but showing the status of a number of aesthetic principles overlap and set the fold.Chapter IV to VI is the main part of the paper. In this section, the paper from the three aspects of "Landscape Physical Shape","Landscape Time Field" and "Landscape Aesthetic Image" on the aesthetic orientation of the external features of contemporary Western landscape and the inner spirit of the above requirements. Among them, the"Landscape Physical Shape" and "Landscape Time Field" corresponding to the landscape as a unique aesthetic object, the aesthetic properties of spatial entities and the extension of time. Related discussion, we discard the previous history on the analysis of the landscape of the development process "Style" and "Model" way, but instead focuses on the basic way of elaboration of the urban landscape, the landscape of space and time, mode conversionprocess changes, the aesthetic experience.In this opinion, the aesthetic analysis of the urban landscape can not be separated from the physical presence of the concern. Landscape aesthetic studies will likely to fall into a too illusory theoretical meditations; time analysis of landscape aesthetic, making the paper the aesthetic connotation of the landscape of contemporary Western thinking is not limited to the reflections of the space environment, but to explore co-exist with the physical environment With the passage of time, the beauty of the spectacular time of the historical accumulation and presentation of the different eras and cultural backgrounds. As for the aesthetic concerns of the urban landscape time, has also become one of the innovative points of the paper. Point as the ultimate expression of contemporary Western landscape aesthetic connotation,"Landscape Aesthetic Image" of concern is the aesthetic process of landscape showing the spirit and culture. By means of the presentation of the"Landscape Physical Shape" and the generation of the"Landscape Time Field", contemporary Western urban landscape constructed a high degree of harmony between man and nature as the spiritual home of the aesthetic thrust. In this process, multiple physical shape and time field showing the construction of the meaning of the environment as become a collective aesthetic paradigm of the contemporary Western urban landscape presented above seek.Through a descriptive analysis of the urban landscape of contemporary Western aesthetic paradigm, the paper argues that the aesthetic paradigm of the contemporary Western urban landscape showing the characteristics of fusion by the statements inside and outside of the "thinking" kernel "poem"."Thinking" value orientation, the decision of the contemporary urban landscape aesthetic contemplation in the aesthetic experience capture process inherent in the rational spirit;"poetry" of the identity interesting aesthetic form of the contemporary urban landscape, in a multi-under the influence of the cultural background of the era to the high degree of harmony to the people and society, between man and nature for its aesthetic thrust by means of the more artistic and personal expression, showing a patchwork of landscape aesthetic world.
