On Saturday, June 22, 2019, at 2 PM, two former protégés of landscape architect Dan Kiley will reflect on his influence. Both are prominent landscape architects in Vermont – Terry Boyle and David Raphael. Kiley was internationally acclaimed, and some of his most notable designs include the East Wing of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston, The Chicago Art Institute; and, in collaboration with Eero Saarinen, the Gateway Arch National Park in St. Louis. Boyle and Raphael will share their memories of working with Dan Kiley at his Charlotte, Vermont, office and how he shaped their careers and design approach.
David Raphael's firm LandWorks is located in Middlebury, Vermont, and Terry Boyle now concentrates his efforts as a landscape architect and watercolor artist from his home in Huntington, Vermont. Together the speakers have much to share about working with and learning from Dan Kiley. The panel discussion will take place in the conference room of the Middlebury Town Office, across the street from the Henry Sheldon Museum. Space is limited, advance reservations are recommended by calling 802-388-2117. The talks are free to members of the Sheldon Museum and the Vermont Association of Vermont Landscape Architects; general public $5 (includes Museum admission).
The Landscape Architecture Legacy of Dan Kiley exhibit is presented by: The Henry Sheldon Museum of Vermont History in partnership with The Cultural Landscape Foundation of Washington, D.C. and its presenting sponsors, The Davey Tree Expert Company and Victor Stanley Inc.; the Vermont Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects; and the Vermont Division for Historic Preservation.
