I Maestri del Paesaggio-International Meeting of the Landscape and Garden is a quality event which holds its place among the most important national and International landscaping events.

Other than the two day long Meeting with some of the most famous Landscape Architects and Garden Designers, the event also offers Workshops, Seminars, Landscape Aperitifs and other events where one may talk to and exchange ideas with guests of international excellence.

Cultural and food&wine events, exhibitions and competitions are to be held over two creative weeks to promote, publicise and appreciate both the natural environment and that changed by human intervention.

One of the main objectives is to promote sustainable development by evaluating the potential of our territories with respect to many different disciplines, from landscape architecture to environmental protection and the protection of the natural environment, from creativity to art… hoping to reach as many people as possible, from professionals to ordinary citizens, both young and old.

Art and concept are the inspirational muses of the 2014 set up, for which Arketipos focuses on the Healing Landscape.

Unlike previous editions, the design of the new concept has been entrusted to a designer who is an outsider to the association: London’s Peter Fink, considered to be one of the most original protagonists of the international landscape architectural panorama,  who has innovative ideas and  methods of work.

For the 2014 edition, Fink has proposed a dialogue of contrasts with the monumental scenery. He knows Bergamo well because he has participated in the last two editions of the International Meeting at Bergamo, and has also been involved in the design of the park at Malpensata. He is enchanted by the creative dynamism of the Italian culture, but has often admitted  to being disappointed about the energy wasted in political opposition and in the lack of clear agreement within the community.

Because of this, he has decided on a set up which has a strong contemporary conceptual and artistic emphasis, always bearing in mind theme of greenery and that the aim is social aggregation.

Work with a designer whose expertise is recognized world-wide is a response Bergamo’s desire to awaken its creativity, to open up to the international spirit and thus to better valorize itself.
