Discussion | Art and Literature: Hearing the Gardener’s Voice

Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 6:00 pm

Free

Gardens are a series of transitory delights, temporal transactions between humans and nature. Luckily, the creation and development of a garden is sometimes recorded by its maker or, in some cases, by the discerning visitor. Books by and about true gardeners constitute a special genre of literature.

Paula Deitz is a distinguished journalist whose personal responses to numerous gardens have been gathered in her recent book, Of Gardens, a collection of essays that brim with sensory description. Distinguished landscape architect Laurie Olin writes descriptive appreciations and annotates the gardens he visits as well as the ones he designs with exceptional drawings. They will join landscape historian Elizabeth Barlow Rogers, author of Writing the Garden: A Literary Conversation Across Two Centuries, in a discussion of the ways that they and others represent the marriage of garden art and nature through words and illustrations.
