Description

André Heller is rightly regarded as one of the most influental contemporary multi-media artists. The garden he created brings together plants and flowers from all regions in the world. Contemporary sculptures add to the beauty of the botanical Heller garden, which takes visitors on a journey to nature and its wonders and lets them enjoy aesthetic sculptures and other human-made works of art, that combine nature and art in an exciting way.
The garden puts various artworks on display, among them those of world-famous artists such as Roy Lichtenstein, Keith Haring, Susanne Schmoegner, Erwin Novak and Rudolph Hirt. Some of these works were commissioned by the Austrian artist Heller, and others were gifts. All of them cite the various traditions and religions which come together in this park.

Along the routes, there are several different plants and rest areas. In the centre of the park, there is an alpine valley with clefts, crevices, pine-trees and Nordic trees as well as waterfalls. The valley is surrounded by water lily and lotus lakes that invite one to meditate.

The botanical Heller garden is situated in Gardone Riviera and open daily from March to October. For further information on admission charges and special events, we recommend you visit the park website.
