Roberto Burle Marx: Landscapes Reflected, Landscape Views 3

Editorial Reviews Book Description Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx (1909-94) was Latin America's most influential and internationally renowned landscape architect. He produced thousands of gardens and public spaces and was among the first advocates for the protections of the Brazilian rain forest. He has been acclaimed by the American Institute of Architects as the "real creator of the modern garden." This title contains essays by Anita de la Rosa de Berrizbeitia, Rossana Vaccarino, Lelia Coelho Frota, and Silvio Soares Macedo on Burle Marx's work and legacy. "Imposing an aesthetic order on the botanically turbulent, spectacular environmental task. The powerful yet fragile garden art of Roberto Burle Marx is an unsurpassed achievement that has done just this...The scholorship collectedc in this volume...offers hope for sustaining the spirit and preserving the essential outlines of the work of Burle Marx."--William Howard Adams, from his preface.
