Krátky popis
The lives of 40 men and women behind some of the world's most
exciting gardens. Throughout history great gardeners have risen
from all walks of life. Some have been aristocratic amateur
gardeners, others professional designers with an international
practice.Some have come to garden-making from sister arts such as
sculpture or painting, others have been hands-on nurserymen or
botanists. What they all have in common is the ability to take an
idea and develop it in a new manner relevant to their times. The
book contains four sections.'Gardens of Ideas' moves from the
politically allusive gardens of 18th-century England made by men
such as William Kent, to Charles Jencks's Scottish garden inspired
by 21st-century cosmography. 'Gardens of Straight Lines' explores
the lives of the great formalist gardeners, from Le Notre at
Versailles to the rational English minimalism of contemporary
designer Christopher Bradley-Hole. 'Gardens of Curves' begins with
that great exponent of the English landscape garden, 'Capability'
Brown, and leads to the extraordinary Brazilian designer Roberto
Burle Marx.Finally, 'Gardens of Plantsmanship' moves from the
father of naturalistic planting, William Robinson, to the sweeping
prairies of New York's favourite Dutch designer, Piet Oudolf.
