Piet Oudolf designs Perennial Garden on Vitra Campus, in Weil am Rhein
The construction of the Perennial Garden, a large 4,000-square metre garden began in May 2020. It was designed by Piet Oudolf, the famous Dutch landscape architect who created important public parks such as the New York High Line, the Hauser & Wirth Somerset gallery, the Serpentine Galleries and the Venice Biennale. The new garden will be built on the meadow that stretches between the VitraHaus designed by Herzog & de Meuron and the Vitra production centre designed by Álvaro Siza.

Farewell to Christo, artist and pioneer of land art
"Beauty, science and art will always triumph": words written by Christo in a letter back in 1958, but which today remain as the most important legacy that the artist has left to the world through his unique works. A press release issued by Christo's press office on his official Facebook page, sadly communicated to the world that on May 31, 2020 the artist died of natural causes in his New York home, at the age of 84.
