The Art and Gardens of Jeff Mendoza

By (author) Jeff Mendoza

$55.00

  • A look back at an accomplished landscape designer's career
  • Inludes plant names in Latin
Full Description

Artifact presents the thoughtful and sophisticated landscape designs of Jeff Mendoza. A formally trained artist, his work often reflects the natural world – depicting botanical forms with earthy palettes. He noticed this connection and opened his eponymous firm, J. Mendoza Gardens in 1987. While plants became his medium, he approached the design of a garden in the same manner he would a drawing or painting – considering form, color, texture, scale, and the overall composition. Artifact is a portfolio of Mendoza’s accomplished career tracing his various projects – whether a city terrace or a country yard – intellectually planned for each unique environment and spatial layout. Contents: Introduction; Preface: Judith Kirshner; Foreword: Barbara Toll; Gone, But Not Forgotten; Romantic; Sculptural; Pictorial; Geometric; Exotic; Distilled; Painterly; Modern; Minimal.
