"Trees come in many forms and are
shaped by a huge variety of climatic and human forces. This makes them iconic
vehicles for expressing human conditions and allows for commentary on deep
ecology. Artists have always been arboreal fans; some artists look at trees and
see them as canvases for their particular vision. Others may decide to
replicate them in their favorite medium, whether it is ceramics, fabrics, paint
or glass. They combine, redesign, and transform their materials into art that
changes the way we perceive the world. Their creations grab our attention and
give us a promise of renewal and beauty; their work with trees, roots, and
leaves creates magic and mystery for us to delight in. In this striking
collection, 106 international, twenty-first century artists portray their world
in sculpture, glass, paint, clay, wood and other contemporary mediums,
displayed in over 500 images. As Dr. Seuss suggests in The Lorax, they, Speak
for the trees, for the trees have no tongues."
