    In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, naturalists, poets and artists were united in their love of trees. William Gilpin began his influential 'Remarks on Forest Scenery' (1791) with the bold statement that 'It is no exaggerated praise to call a tree the grandest, and most beautiful of all the productions of the earth.' Illustrated books and tree portraits celebrated the beauty, antiquity and diversity of individual, and particularly ancient specimens. A wide range of drawing manuals showed artists and amateurs how to express their 'character' and 'anatomy', as if they were human subjects. Paintings of woodland scenes provided welcome relief from city life, and studies of exotic trees reflected the growth of tourism and empire. The arrival of new species from all over the world aroused much excitement and scientific activity. At the same time, the native trees - oak, ash, beech, elm - acquired new resonance as emblems of the rural countryside. Many of Britain's most important landscape painters, including Paul Sandby, John Constable, Samuel Palmer, Edward Lear, and the Pre-Raphaelites, made themselves experts in the drawing and painting of trees

    Soixante-quatre artistes de tout premier plan portent un regard écologique, symbolique ou politique sur l'arbre révélant l'urgence et la nécessité de le protéger. Véritable ± arbre-corps ?, l'artiste brésilien d'origine polonaise, Frans Krajcberg, ouvre l'ouvrage et en incarne le propos. Dans sa continuité, Pierre Alechinsky, Ai Weiwei, Jean Nouvel, Gloria Friedmann, Antony Gormley, Nils-Udo, Maurizio Cattelan, Fabrice Hyber, Ernest Pignon Ernest, Zang Xiaogang ou encore JR rendent visible le combat pour la protection de l'arbre en privilégiant le sensible, l'esthétique et le symbolique. Qu'ils soient ± éco sensibles ? ou à l'écoute du pouls ou de la beauté du monde, leur vision conceptuelle ou figurative de l'arbre transcende nos questionnements

    A journey from blooming fruit trees to carpets of fragile flowers, from dark wet branches to pistils surrounded by loud, vivid colours. Throughout this visual offering of nature came the human figure, haunting, questioning, suffering and hoping. How is it that the forces of life grow over what's left dead? How do we reach the other side? On asking these questions, Berger observes how human nature exists within nature itself and transforms it into something both terrible and beautiful. The show features recent works on paper using three different techniques: monoprints of apple trees executed during Spring 2016, etchings of human figures worked on over the last few years, and pastel drawings of flowers executed in an Alpine botanical garden during the month of June 2016
