"Peter Walker and Partners / Nasher Foundation Sculpture Garden" focuses on his garden in Dallas, Texas, a set of 'outdoor galleries' showcasing the Nasher collection of modern and contemporary sculpture. A museum without a roof, the garden, with its subtle balance of art and nature, is also a serene urban park, whose beauty perfectly complements Renzo Piano's design for the center. Peter Walker's informative sketches, drawings, and plans, along with photographs of the final design, reveal the delicate balance between art, culture, and context at the heart of the Nasher Foundation Sculpture Garden.

Ken Smith/New York Projects focuses on three prominent works in New York City: East River Ferry Landings, P.S. 19, and MoMA Rooftop Garden. Through colourful, playful drawings and photographs each project explores new expressions of landscape design in the city. Smith's works reflect the intensity and energy of their surroundings and challenge the distinction between landscape and art form.
