Trees of Life. Art - Culture - Nature

27 May - 24 Sept 2006

Who doesn't have a relationship with trees? Trees are a source of history, and perhaps of the future. Trees are living material. Artists have always used the tree or trees as material or subject. Trees and forests have a fascinating biology and are foud over most of the world. It is fascinating to study the number of places in our life where the tree plays a role. The exhibition is fashioned as a field of artistic experiences and knowledge. There are contributions from art and cultural history, architecture and design, and the more innovative research in the field of natural science.

This was the third interdisciplinary and major theme exhibition at the Art Centre Silkeborg Bad including a number of partners and selected artists. Workshops and a number of events were offered to both children and adults. A book was published in connection with the exhibition.
