Trees & Other Ramifications explores both works of art that were inspired by trees and images from the arts and sciences in which trees have served as a metaphor for real and imagined branching systems—for example, works about family trees, the tree of knowledge, and Darwin's evolutionary tree of life.
Description
This companion catalogue to the Spencer’s spring 2009 exhibition Trees & Other Ramifications: Branches in Nature & Culture is the Museum’s first full-length electronic book. The publication includes contributions from SMA Director Saralyn Reece Hardy, SMA Senior Curator and Curator of Prints & Drawings Stephen Goddard, and Biodiversity Institute Director Leonard Krishtalka.
