Little and Lewis
 |
Celebrated artists and gardeners, George Little and David Lewis, are known for their concrete sculptures and installations and their stunning Puget Sound garden. Their brand-new book, 'A Garden Gallery: The Plants, Art, and Hardscape of Little and Lewis,' is a treasure trove of their ideas clearly laid out for home gardeners. This handsome, glossy book offers "inspiration and encourages gardeners to use imagination and take risks." The authors would no doubt enjoy visiting the community gardens on the Lower East Side in Manhattan, because in fact those gardeners have been doing their own version of Little and Lewis's style for over thirty years. So, if you look at 'A Garden Gallery' and are interested in figuring out how to combine art and garden design, found objects and excellent plants, make a beeline for the Lower East Side and feast your eyes.
