Garden Art 2001: Potsdam--National Horticultural Show
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In summer 2001, Potsdam, one of the world's famous sites of classical garden design, with the beautiful grounds of the Sans Souci Palace, will be staging international contributions which respond to the tasks and challenges in contemporary landscape architecture.
A large number of internationally known landscape architects, artists and architects have come together to cultivate 60 hectares of public park, to redesign urban spaces and other sites where historical townscapes and nature conjoin, to develop avant-garde artistic features, and to create the central spectacular exhibition space.
This book will present the various parks and artistic interventions in their finished state, accompanied by lavish illustrations and descriptive texts, thus ensuring that the book remains topical throughout the festival and will be an enduring documentation long after the doors have been closed and the new park with its array of leisure and recreational facilities have been developed.
