These compositions are structured around brightly colored trees that simultaneously conceal and compose the scene unfolding behind them. Acting as a spine or an anchor, they appear to condition the interactions of the characters on either side, held in place as they are by the branching structure. The characters are borrowed from Peter Arno's midcentury illustrations for the \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e. The motif of the tree reverberates throughout the history of art, and Salle identifies the tree as a form of collective experience, a lineage of which we are all a part. \u003cbr\u003eThis concise volume showcases these new paintings, the culmination of the celebrated \u003ci\u003eTree of Life\u003c\/i\u003e series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 11.4 x 9.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 05, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765012463904,"sku":"9782910055936","price":43.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/fe54477e34099c07f42c730026df2db1.webp?v=1780260395","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/david-salle-tree-of-life-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
