Defiant Gardens - Making Gardens in Wartime

Wartime gardens are dramatic examples of what landscape architect Kenneth Helphand calls defiant gardens — gardens created in extreme social, political, economic, or cultural conditions. This talk focuses on gardens soldiers built inside and behind the trenches in WW1; gardens built in the Warsaw and other ghettos under the Nazis during WW2; gardens in the POW and civilian internment camps of both world wars; and gardens created by Japanese Americans held at U.S. internment camps during WW2.
