The subject of gardens and their memories that have been associated with artists or artists’ communities relates to the horticulture of the art. Some are better matched than others (Rubens and his gardens are difficult imaginatively to re-construct; others, such as Monet’s at Giverny have been meticulously conserved), but the real point of interest is the artists’ devotion to gardens and gardening, whether there was a direct correspondence with their art or not. The Secret Spaces that Inspired Great Art, is indicative of this aspect: it is not about a direct correlation of garden to art, but of a “secret space”, that is, of a subliminal, almost inaccessible neural connection to an earthy plot, that is place where artistic enterprise is born for the artists recorded here.
‘The Secret Garden’ officially opens on 16th September 2021 at 20:00GMT and runs until 16th October 2021. The Live Opening Exhibition can be viewed here, please R.S.V.P. here: https://fb.me/e/1JSBSTNwd
