Charles Jencks is one of the foremost international artists working in his medium.  His Garden of Cosmic Speculation is one of the most original and highly praised contemporary gardens.  He engages with a wide range of contemporary themes from science and cosmology to war, regeneration and man’s relationship to nature.

In his sequel, Jencks explains the complex cosmic and historical metaphors underlying his work in the field of land art.  The book features new projects in his own garden near Dumfries, as well as the award winning Landform Ueda outside the Museum of Modern Art in Edinburgh, and other projects around the world.

Copies of the book will be available for sale.
