The Maeder-York Family Fellowship in Landscape Studies was created in 2012 to recognize emerging design talent across disciplines dealing with landscape and support experimentation, research and achievement in design through landscape. With each selection, the fellowship committee aims to identify work embodying landscape as a medium of design for the public realm and grow disciplinary and professional capacity within landscape architecture. Applications for the 2016 fellowship were received from around the world.
“The support and resources that the Maeder-York Family Fellowship offers will be invaluable as I explore the local and regional landscape and further my research on the role of physical and computational modeling in landscape architecture,” Holzman said. “I am honored to have been selected and look forward to a productive summer at the museum and bringing what I learn back to my students.”

“We are thrilled that Justine Holzman will join us in June,” said Charles Waldheim, Ruettgers Curator of Land
scape at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and chair of the fellowship jury. “Holzman’s project Media Landscapes, will focus on the digital modeling of the Charles River in relation to its dynamic hydrology, complex ecologies and ongoing urbanization. Her work on this subject promises to shed important light on the historic precedents and present potentials for the modeling of complex landscapes found at the intersection of natural systems and urban development.” Waldheim will lecture at the UT ֲý on April 18.
