Tour Scotland Video Garden Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art Edinburgh



Tour Scotland video of the landscaped garden and ponds at the front of Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art on visit to Edinburgh, Scotland. The garden area was designed by Charles Alexander Jencks, an American architecture theorist and critic, landscape architect and designer. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, America, Jencks spent his childhood in New England. His father was the pianist and composer Gardner Jencks. Jencks received his Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature at Harvard University in 1961 and a Master of Arts degree in architecture from the Harvard Graduate School of Design in 1965. In the mid-sixties, Jencks moved to the United Kingdom, where he now has houses in Scotland and London, England.
