The Kraus Campo - Garden Design

Artist Mel Bochner and Landscape Architect Michael Van Valkenburgh and his staff, in a unique collaboration have designed a new garden for the Carnegie Mellon University campus. The “Kraus Campo” has been conceived as a single integrated work combining art and landscape design. Rare among projects of this kind, it challenges the very definition of a garden: it is both a garden-as-a-sculpture and a-sculpture-as-a-garden.
