Description
Roberto Burle Marx's lectures on landscape as art and urbanism offer a unique insight into the philosophy and practice of one of the most influential landscape architects of the 20th century. This collection of 12 lectures, many of which have never been published in English, sheds light on Burle Marx's distinctive approach to landscape design, which he described as "the real art in living." The lectures cover topics such as composition, ecology, and lighting, providing a comprehensive understanding of Burle Marx's vision for bringing radical change to cities and society. Through these lectures, Burle Marx shares his experiences and ideas on landscape design, from his famous curving mosaic walkways to his rooftop gardens. His work has had a lasting impact on the built environment, and this collection provides a rare opportunity to engage with his thoughts and ideas directly. This revised edition of Burle Marx's lectures is a valuable resource for architects, designers, and anyone interested in the intersection of art, ecology, and urban planning.
