From the serial Sonamu (pine tree) yesteryear Bae Bien-U

Apparently - according to the Art Fund, in that place has been a recent resultant of banknote worth commemorating

In 1217, Henry III signed the Charter of the Forest, opening upwards the majestic forests for the usage of the people. To grade the 800th anniversary of this act, inward Nov 2017 The Woodland Trust launches a novel charter to recognise as well as protect those rights.

The Arborealists: The Art of Trees 2017 

The Arborealists: The Art of Trees 2017 has exactly finished at Bermondsey Project Space, London, until xiii Jan - but volition last moving to the John Davis Gallery in Moreton–in-Marsh, Gloucestershire inward June 2018

The appearance of the Arborealists inward 2013 is an extraordinary phenomenon inside the pervading orthodoxy inward an fine art footing that values postal service modernist objects, cinema as well as pop culture. Where events, interventions as well as installations engage the viewer, what tin ‘tree painters’ (the Arborealists are for the most business office painters), offering a populace that is understandably titillated yesteryear Jeff Koons as well as Damien Hirst.

The associated majority is even as well as then available - as well as indeed I bought The Arborealists: The Art of the Tree earlier I realised in that place was an exhibition!

I saw it terminal Fri as well as it has some  exactly stunning images - run across inward a higher house for exactly 1 example.

Trees pick out long been a source of inspiration for artists. This display explores the various representation of trees inward photography – equally botanical subjects as well as poetic symbols, inward the context of the natural as well as human worlds.

This is non business office of the exhibition but is a brusque video on YouTube by Bae Bien-U the Korean lensman who produced the stunning epitome at the hap of this post.  He has evidently been acclaimed for his treescapes - especially ones of Korean Pines - for the terminal ii decades.

I'll write to a greater extent than virtually the exhibition as well as the other marvellous images after inward the week.
