Garden/Art/Garden | The Japanese Garden as a work of art — the modern era

This session brings together a Japanese garden designer and thinker, who is partly based in London, with a renowned British landscape designer who has worked intensively in Japan for periods. It asks the question, is Japan still a place where gardens are considered to be far more than horticulture — as a deeply spiritual, philosophical and aesthetic practice.

This series, chaired and curated by landscape historian and critic Tim Richardson, aims to broaden our ideas of what gardens, landscape and place can mean in the context of artistic practice in an era of climate change. Across five evenings, Tim has invited a range of practitioners, curators and academics to discuss their own work and to reflect on the broader scene.
