Flowering perennials and ornamental grasses are a matter of course in our gardens today. They were introduced by the Potsdam garden artist Karl Foerster.
Karl Foerster (1874-1970) was a gardener, writer and - as he described himself - a cosmopolitan. He is one of the most important gardening personalities. To mark the 150th anniversary of his birth, the Potsdam Museum is dedicating an exhibition to him entitled "Karl Foerster. New Paths - New Gardens. The garden pioneer from Potsdam", now extended until September 29, 2024. Foerster's garden design still lives on in contemporary gardens in Europe and overseas. Selected examples are presented in the exhibition.
The curator of the exhibition is Heidi Howcroft, landscape architect bdla.
