A Portrait Of An Iconoclastic Garden In The Hamptons Where Painter, Poet, And SelfTaught Horticulturist Robert Dash Created An Eclectic Plant Paradise And A Literary And Arts Salon.During The 1960S, Painter, Poet, And Gardener Robert Dash Set Out To Create A Haven Where Art And The Garden Existed In Tandem. What Began As A Fallow Farm Field Over Time Became A Beloved Public Garden And Hamptons Treasure That The New York Times Has Called An EverChanging Masterpiece. Madoo Is A Living Tribute To This Eclectic, Beautiful Place. Sumptuously Photographed By Tria Giovan, The Book Is Filled With Stunning Images Of Interiors And Gardens, Archival Pieces Illustrating MadooS Early Days, Paintings And Drawings By Robert Dash, And Essays From Contributors Who Have Witnessed Its Evolution. Madoo Appeals To A Broad Range Of Readers Infatuated With American Culture, The Gardens Of Artists, And The Enduring Appeal Of The Hamptons. Madoo, Which Is Old Scots For My Dove, Was Both DashS Personal Haven And A Forum For Collaborative, Creative Discourse And Critique, Marked By The Arcadian Confluence Of Art, Music, Literature, And Poetry.
