From Urban Agriculture to Art, Let's Beautify Our Cities

Lipsett, Owen. ""Puppy" by Jeff Koons." IgoUgo. Available from http://photos.igougo.com/pictures- photos-p152389- Puppy_by_Jeff_Koons.html. Internet; accessed 2 November 2009.

The vertical gardens in Andjela's post reminded me of artist Jeff Koons' "Puppy" which is a massive sculptural topiary. Urban agriculture is not only showing up in architecture, it is also being used as an artistic expression. It has potential to extend its application beyond the immediate operations of daily life to becoming an outlet for creativity.
