Bruno Torf Fantasy Garden

Artist Bruno Torf created this sculpture garden as a permanent attraction in the small Victorian village of Marysville near Melbourne, Australia. The luscious sub-alpine forests of the surrounding areas were ideal for Bruno’s settings which consists of over three hundred paintings and sculptures. The garden started out with just fifteen life size terracotta sculptures but slowly grew to over one hundred and fifteen pieces on display.

Hello Bruno,
I am very impressed by your work and intend to come across in the near future so I can meet you and see your sculpture up close. It looks quite large and I have a million questions to ask. Sorry that may be impertinent, its just that as a fellow sculpture it cant be helped. I work in stone myself and really enjoy the creative process. I would like to have a garden of my limestone sculptures one day when I have caught up with you. Its amazing how many you have created. Lots of work. Good on you, and its wonderful you share these freely.

These are fantastic. I love it. I think it’s actually Torfs with an S at the end though. I’d love to go there someday.

Wow, this is certainly a treasure. Isn’t the wood sculptor afraid that the natural elements of rain will ruin his creations?

I love to see sculptures like this. The sculptures at Marysville far surpass any I’ve visited.

How sad that I just stumbled upon this today, the day after the bushfires that decimated Marysville. I hope that the artist escaped the fires safely.

Hello!
As we heard of the fire destuction in Marysville, we would like to know the extent of the damage to your family and your works in the garden.
We were there some years ago and we loved the place and we would eventually like to visit it again.

I am trying to find out how much damage there was to Bruno’s Art and Sculpture Garden. Can you provide information? Thanks.

Hola! En julio pasado tuvimos la oportunidad de visitar Australia y alli junto a una parte de la delegacion de jovenes paraguayos, pudimos constatar la belleza y talento de este compatriota Bruno, a través de los testimonios de los padres Adalberto y Seamus, quienes lo habian visitado unos dias antes y habian compartido con nosotros algunas fotos y testimonio de aquel fantastico lugar creado por el Sr. Bruno. Ahora con mucha tristeza me he enterado del incendio en Australia, que habria destruido este lugar creado por el artista paraguayo! Lamento que sea asi y espero que el y su familia puedan salir adelante luego de esta penosa experiencia. Conociendo su talento, sabemos que asi sera. Desde Asuncion, Paraguay, mis saludo y solidaridad al Sr. Bruno y toda su familia, que Dios los bendiga. Atte. Raquel

Because of some mindless people, who started fires in Victoria and killed many people, Australia, and the world has lost this wonderful art collection. All you have left, for those of you have visited this park, are your memories, for those who didnt have the chance all you can do is read the books and see videos I am one of the later. Tony

Hopefully the sculptures are OK as terracotta is fireproof.

God Bless all who experienced the devastation of these senseless fires… I have cried and prayed and felt for the families, animals and spirit of your nation. I am sad to have just discovered this beautiful work and as an artist, I can only empathize with your loss. Peace be with you all.

Going to Bruno’s Sculpture garden was the highlight of my Trip to Marysville.
The garden brings out the inner child it was beautiful.
Been to the website and they are going to rebuild, but need money.
Details for how you can help or make a donation are on his website.
