Green Fuse: The Work of Dan Pearson - Dan Pearson is one of the most significant landscape and garden designers working today. From contemporary reinterpretations of historic Arts & Crafts gardens to complex public realm urban landscapes and inspiring landscape parks, Pearson creates masterful and original outdoor environments. He is equally at ease designing a private garden for prominent international clients in London as designing a woodland landscape for a space-age house in the forest outside Moscow with Zaha Hadid, restoring a Lutyens/Jekyll estate as creating an ambitious new estate in Devon, or creating a city park in the heart of King’s Cross as a mountainside ecological park at the northernmost tip of Japan. The exhibition explores the breadth and depth of Dan Pearson’s landscape design, tracing the roots of his career as a plantsman and designer, looking at his education and influences and focusing on a number of key projects and their inspiration. From 23 May until 20 October.
About the Museum of Garden History:
The Garden Museum exists to explore and celebrate the social, artistic and cultural significance of gardens and gardening. It was founded in 1977, as the world’s first museum dedicated to the history gardens and gardening. In creating the Museum, the founders also succeeded in saving the historic church of St. Mary-at-Lambeth from demolition.
The inspiration to found the Garden Museum came from the discovery of the neglected and forgotten tomb of 17th century plant hunters, the John Tradescants, father and son. As the Museum looks to the future it aims to become a first class national resource, providing information about plant and garden history to anyone who wishes to visit the building or browse this web site.
