English Edition Edition BONSAI ART 2023, 170 pages, size 21 x 30 cm, softcover Many bonsai prominently display deadwood as either complimentary or even as a major focal point adding both value and quality to the tree. Deadwood is often found on specimens collected from the wild consisting of wounds or stumps occasionally from pruning operations or just natural forces. Andrés Bicocca’s credo is to transform these somewhat unsightly features, which some might view as problem areas, into particularly interesting and natural focal points. Using tools partly of his own design together with highly refined techniques, this Europe-based Argentinian achieves outstanding results on deadwood that have made him famous throughout the bonsai world and popular as a workshop teacher and demonstrator. In this book, Andrés shares his knowledge, skills and philosophy, illustrated with numerous examples and detailed photographs.

Auteur: Geeta K. Mehta, Kimie Tada (compléter en anglais Sprache) Au cœur d'un jardin japonais, il y a l'harmonie avec la nature. Plus qu'un simple paysage d'arbres et d'arbustes fleuris, un jardin japonais offre un lieu de sérénité et de repos, rempli de coins paisibles qui se prêtent à la méditation et à la contemplation. Japanese Gardens célèbre et illustre cet idéal, mettant en valeur la beauté naturelle exquise de plus de 20 jardins japonais typiquement japonais - grands et petits, urbains et ruraux, traditionnels et contemporains. L'équipe experte d'auteurs-photographes derrière ce livre excelle à capturer et à expliquer les éléments essentiels et les techniques qui distinguent les jardins japonais de ceux d'autres pays. Les sites présentés vont des grands jardins féodaux, des jardins de temples et des jardins privés et ruraux aux jardins fleuris de montagne, en passant par les jardins de thé et les jardins consacrés aux bonsaïs miniatures.
