Viaggiare per osservare. Noterelle dall’esperienza del viaggiatore Roberto Burle Marx

Abstract

One hundred years ago, in August 4 1909, Roberto Burle Marx was born in São Paulo. Ri-Vista and its director intend to remember him by this brief article with the gratitude due to the world-wide Master in landscape design. The journeys, and more, the expeditions, which he did in the Brazilian forests taught generations of landscape architects the importance of research on site. It certainly is the main road to the deep comprehension of the natural and aesthetic features of the species to use those in design compositions by less possible violence.
