Krátky popis
A complete introduction to contemporary gardens, from new
innovations, practices, and materials, to the notable designers and
their signature creations, to a glossary of key terms. This volume
introduces the most important trends and issues in gardening today,
defines what constitutes a contemporary garden, and examines the
latest innovations, practices, and approaches that have contributed
to its development. Talk About Contemporary Gardens makes it easy
for novice gardeners to identify different gardening styles and
place them in historical context, from the wasteland redevelopments
of Simone Kroll, to contemporary Japanese landscaping that embodies
the spirit of Zen, to the natural feather gardens of Sylvie and
Patrick Quibel. Since the art of landscaping is tied to nature and
the elements, a chapter on the relationship between gardening and
the seasons looks at the life cycles of plants, the importance of
light, rain, and the seasons, and how gardens behave when the sun
goes down. The book demonstrates the relationship between landscape
gardening and contemporary art, architecture, design, and urbanism,
examining the rich influences that tie them all together. From
Brancusis sculpture-filled spaces, to Gaudis natural curves and
buildings, the text and illustrations highlight how these practices
inform each other in the modern world. Entirely pink gardens, the
sweet perfume of Arabian jasmine, the tang of lemons and the gentle
tinkling of fountains in the Imaginary garden: this book offers
readers a sensory journey to some of the worlds most exotic
gardens. A list of international gardens to visit, biographies of
thirty great landscapers and their signature gardens, a list of key
words, and a glossary complete the volume.
