9. • Roberto Burle Marx was born in São Paulo. He was the fourth son of Cecilia Burle, an upper class Brazilian
Catholic woman whose family came from Pernambuco and France, and Wilhelm Marx, a German Jew, born
in Stuttgart and raised in Trier. The family moved to Rio de Janeiro in 1913.
• Burle Marx's first landscaping inspirations came while studying painting in Germany, where he often
visited the Botanical Garden in Berlin and first learned about Brazil's native flora.
• Upon returning to Brazil in 1930, he began collecting plants in and around his home. He went to school at
the National School of Fine Arts in Rio in 1930 where he focused on visual arts under Leo Putz and
Candido Portinari.
• While in school he associated with several of Brazil's future leaders in architecture and botanists who
continued to be of significant influence in his personal and professional life.
• One of these was his professor, Brazilian Modernism's Lucio Costa, the architect and planner who lived
down the street from Burle.
10. • Burle Marx's artistic style was developed from modernism and distinct features of Brazilian culture such
as folk art .
• Much of his work has a sense of timelessness and perfection. His designs were also influenced by cubism
and abstractionism.
• His aesthetics were often nature based, for example, he never use to mix flower and colours so he used
utilisation of big groups of the same specimen, using native plants and making a rocky field into a relaxing
garden.
• He was very interested in each plant's character and what effect that has on the whole garden. He
sought a depth in his designs by understanding how animals interacted with plants and how they bloomed,
amongst other plant characteristics.
• Burle Marx had a great skill in utilising the sculptural form of plants.
• He also made clever use of enormous scale, lighting and reflection particularly in his use of water. Burle
Marx was able to extend the architecture of a building into the garden. He preferred to work on public
spaces because, in his words, they are able to provide dignity for the masses.
• Marx's work "can be summarized in four general design concepts—the use of native tropical vegetation as
a structural element of design, the rupture of symmetrical patterns in the conception of open spaces, the
colorful treatment of pavements, and the use of free forms in water features“.
