Chelsea Flower Show
Chelsea Flower Show
除了日历上的提示 - 今天是某年的第几天,本年还剩下多少天,每年如期而至的大型活动很尽责地提醒人们时光正不断飞逝。春天一到,泰晤士河上的大学划艇赛率先开锣,六月的温布尔敦总伴随着阵雨、草莓配奶油和香槟,七月BBC Proms音乐会季节开始。时常就要感叹,又是一年过去了。
五月份是切尔西园艺展。我虽然是遐迩闻名的黑拇指,花草的名字也很叫不出来,却非常喜欢看花园。切尔西园艺展是专业园艺工作者表演的舞台,业余爱好者观摩优质植物、新鲜品种、园艺设计的好机会,也无可避免是所谓社交名媛展示裙子帽子的斗秀场。
展览的类型很多,有专门展示某种植物的,有插花布置,也有主题庭园设计。竞争非常激烈,花费的心思极多,有些参展者为此可以准备上大半年。记得《人兔的诅咒》里Gromit呵护它那只大葫芦的爱心和热情么?这些人可称有过之而无不及。
头三天专业裁判评分,然后才对大众开放。最后一天很好玩,展览上撤下来的植物、装备大甩卖,有心人可以淘到大批好东西。
Best of Show应该是最高奖项,今年被Show Garden类别里的The Daily Telepgraph Garden夺得,设计师是瑞典人。
他的设计理念:
[quote]"It's easy to say that you are inspired by modern architecture, design and culture. Who isn't? Renaissance gardens were built on ideas of architecture and were also influenced by the surrounding landscape and the notion of pruning nature in order to control it.
The famous Japanese artist, sculptor and landscape architect Isamu Noguchi transformed nature and created new landscapes in his many works. Both Italian gardens and Noguchi's works are my inspiration for The Daily Telegraph Garden because they use architecture in combination with a sense of theatre. They both want to contrast horticulture and nature by pruning plants.
My gardens and parks include an awareness of the huge variations in nature, culture and climate from the north to the south of Sweden. I always aim to achieve a distinctive character in each project. Swedish nature is present in all my designs due to the use of beautiful, natural, long lasting materials
