L’incontro del 27 di maggio è una chiacchierata su due bellissimi giardini italiani, di epoche diverse ma che condividono lo stesso tema e cioè il sogno e la fantasia. Parleremo del Sacro Bosco di Bomarzo, nel Lazio, voluto da Vicino Orsini nella seconda metà dal ‘500 e del Giardino dei Tarocchi, eseguito da Niki de Saint Phalle negli anni ’70 dello scorso secolo, che si trova in Toscana.
