Gardens On Parade Book
OFFICIAL RELEASE SEPT 22ND - Will be shipping them out after the release party
Follow an urban garden's growth, the workers that make it happen, and its local visitors through the eyes of an embedded artist. Made in conjunction with sTo Len's residency at the Queens Botanical Garden, this book compiles the artist's own photographs and plant-based prints with material that he pulled from the garden's archive that spans over 85 years of historical treasures. Featuring photos found deep within the flat files and whole excerpts from the Garden's own in-house publication, there are timeless articles on plants coupled with a fascinating look into this garden's past. From its origin at the 1939 NY World's Fair to the essays found in the "Notebook of the Green Witche," this is a good example of what happens when an artist is allowed to activate an archive and share so much cool stuff that might not have ever seen the light of day.
First Edition, Full-color, 184 pages, perfect bound., 6.69" x 9.61"
