PIERRE RICHER DE BELLEVAL (1564-1632), was a French Botanist. He is considered the Father of Scientific Botany. n 1593 he was appointed to the New Royal Chair of Anatomy and Botanical Studies of Montpellier. Two Years Later, in 1595, he received his Doctorate in Medicine in Montpellier. In 1593 Henry IV of France asked him to create a Botanical Garden in Montpellier following the Model of the Gardens created in Padoua in 1545. Belleval devoted all of his Time and Money to the Jardin des plantes de Montpellier, which was the First Botanical Garden in France. The Garden contained the King's Garden (Medicinal Plants), the Queen's Garden (Mountain Plants from Languedoc and elsewhere) and the King's Square (Plants of Purely Botanical Interest). The Goal was to have a Garden for conducting Experiments related to both Medicine and Agriculture. Unfortunately, a Civil War and a Siege of the City destroyed the Garden in 1622 and Pierre Richer de Belleval had to recreate the Garden from Scratch and continued working on this until his Death at Montpellier

From a Family of Architects Passionate about Design and Contemporary Creations, JEAN-PHILIPPE NUEL graduated as an Architect from the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and quickly made a Name for Himself by winning Several Competitions, including an International Competition presided over by Kenzo Tange. Following his First Hotel Project (just before turning 30), Subsequent Projects for Boutique Hotels followed in Paris (Le Lavoisier, Le Général, Le Duo and more recently the Le Cinq Codet) and elsewhere in France (Le Canberra in Cannes, the Avenue Lodge in Val d´Isère, Le Grand Balcon in Toulouse, or the Jiva Hill Park Hotel near Geneva).

GOLA HUNDUN (1982, Cesena, Italy) lives and work between Barcelona and Rimini.Gola Hundun´s Work shows the Relationship between Human Beings and the Biosphere. This Consideration combined with the Conscious Decision to live as a Vegetarian since the Age of 16 positions the Artist and his Work closer to the Animal Sphere and to the Human Sphere. He explores Themes such as Interspecies Communication, Shamanism, a Return to the Earth, Vegetarianism, and Spirituality.

In 2010, he spent a Residency Semester in Quebec, Canada, where began his Artistic Career on a Global Scale. From the Completion of his Art Residency in 2010 until our Days his Work pushed him to visit many Countries around the World through Collective and Solo Shows including Places such as Sao Paulo Brazil (2011), Jenin Palestine (2011), Moscow Russia (2012), Tokyo Japan (2012), Almaty in Kazakhstan (2013), and recently Miami in U.S.A. (2014) Dominican Republic(2016). The Universe he creates has always an Allegoric Interpretation and is enhanced by many Influences such Post Human Culture, Sacred Art, Zoology, Psychedelic Art and by the many Cultures he found and still is finding during his trips around the World.
