Abstract
Usdan Gallery is proud to present the complete House & Garden drawing series by ecological artist Patricia Johanson '62, a seminal project produced fifty years ago but never before exhibited in its entirety. Inspired by a 1969 commission from House & Garden magazine, the 146 garden prototypes illustrate the scope of Johanson's prescience in considering environmental issues of urgency today, such as erosion, flooding, landfills, and water conservation, as well a larger questions of the relationship between humans and nature.
