What is there we like (or don’t) about the Nebraska landscape?
Dr. Richard K. Sutton has been thinking and interacting with the Nebraska landscape for decades and has crafted his own enviro-aesthetic approach to that question. His book manuscript of 16 chapters and 323 pages takes the reader place by place and step by step through the process of reading Nebraska’s landscape. He connects scenery, exploration of our shared history and description of our community of people and plants, suggests an understanding of the impacts of natural and cultural places, and projects the future of a shared landscape.
Sutton, emphatically a 4th generation Nebraska native, draws upon his roots and a deep well of experience from decades of Nebraska travels, teaching, and design to suggest answers to Reading the Nebraska Landscape.
Sutton is a Center Fellow and a Professor of agronomy and horticulture at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This free talk is part of the Paul A. Olson seminars for Great Plains Studies.
