- The Art of the Garden, Series 2, Piet Oudolf
Colonial Pictures London, Sky Arts, docu, 45 min.
Forty years ago the Dutch designer Piet Oudolf rebelled against the use of annuals in favour of perennials.
He led the New Perennial Movement - also known as ‘The Dutch Wave’ - and it changed garden design forever. His first major garden in this style was Scampston Hall in Yorkshire
and it looks as good today as it did then. - Zábava
Thanks so much for posting. It was not possible to watch the original screening from North America, so this is a gift for garden lovers of Piet Oudolf's sublime New Perennial style.
For many many years, my family had a rural property more or less a stone's throw from Hummelo - where I gardened only a bit because there was the thing called work and because we were only there on weekends. Now I live in eastern Canada on a 1 ha property with a view over a bay and I've spent 20 years growing a garden - a messy garden with a pond and a sizable wild flower patch and fruit trees and berry bushes and grasses and one classic flower bed. And I suppose my Dutch instincts are at work because one time an American friend came to visit and told me that my garden was unlike any North American garden, but that it did remind him of his cousin's garden in Denmark. I didn't really become aware of Piet Oudolf's work until I walked the highline in NY about 10 years ago! So now I've watched this beautiful documentary and I do think I need a few more grasses...............
Music and gardening bring us closer to our Heavenly Father. I so appreciate the love that wells up in gardening. Nobody should ever be able to tell anyone else what to grow
Such a humble man, so talented 💚
Schitterend! Heb enorm genoten van deze aflevering. Piet Oudolf is echt een legende in de tuinwereld.
He really does have a talent for creating a natural garden.
Stunning!!!!
Sublime is the word!
I feel the same way Sir!
WOW!!
thank you.
That’s known in Japan for centuries, Wabi Sabi.
Yes, but it's different when expressed through a garden. Japanese gardens evoke a divine paradise, Oudolf's evoke a very earthly one.
I love this.. but my grandfather had a perennial garden and I am 80 years old. Lots of this depends on site and what the plants are growing in naturally. Try this in a Northern Michigan and it will look like an overgrown farm field. A little color adds to our enjoyment of life. He depends a lot on what I think is box and not only can't you grow this in a zone 4 garden but if it goes... to some bug or other attack... you ail see all the decay you want.
Glad to see that you are still taking an interest in gardening despite being a lovely age. Enjoy your springtime. From Australia
Een enorme verbetering op al wat voor zijn tijd modieus was, maar nog steeds niet overtuigd van dat afgrijselijke siergras! 😢
Why are some areas blurred? I feel like I am going blind. It’s really distracting.
Hello, could you perhaps indicate where these pieces are located?
It is not blurred. Those are grasses and there seedheads. But I know what you mean 😂
I think you are referring to the blurred foreground or background of certain shoots. This is because of the focus of the area of interest, (focal length) in the shot. The focus is further or deeper in frame that creates a blurred frame, if you will. The in focus shot could have been framed to only contain the area in focus but the person shooting, (the director of photography) framed a more artful and interesting shot. This element also gives perspective. That was an artistic choice not a mistake.
@@HenkLeurink Also not a big thing but there are black screens for a few seconds between each of the episodes. one break has some technical timer on it too...
@@ValeriaVincentSancisi Yes. Perhaps they will one day run the video through an editor and remove the blank spaces and the segment transition text.
There's nothing remarkable about using perennials in the garden. It's not remarkable that Oudolf uses ONLY perennials, as many great and famous English borders use only perennials. His style certainly IS remarkable, though not for using perennials, but rather for using them in new ways.
