EDWARD JAMES GDN

Las Pozas was created by Edward James an eccentric English poet and artist and patron of the Surrealist movement.

He had left England in 1938 and at first went California- but decided that he “wanted a Garden of Eden.  He saw that Mexico was far more romantic and was already surrealistic and so in the late forties began a project that lasted until his death in 1984
