Signature Image

I decided early on that I would use a signature image for each element of the publicity for the show. I chose one of the moths firstly because I considered it a successful image – it had already been selected in open calls at the Royal West of England Academy Bristol, at the Mall Gallery show of the Society of Women Artists and at the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair along with other ‘Obligates’. I also did not want to use anything overly tree-like. In many ways the Obligates underline the investigative approach to tree species loss and the cascading effect on other parts of the ecology.

   The forest in contemporary art
   Innocence lost: caught between city forestation and the club forest

   While the idyll of Romantic era songs may be gone, creative artists in Germany still explore the forest today – critically, ironically and with an eye to history. 

   By Christa Sigg

   The name Joseph Beuys conjures up fat, felt and rabbits – materials and motifs that appear in many of his best-known works. Perhaps the artist’s single more famous work was his tree-planting campaign during the documenta 7 exhibition of contemporary art in Kassel. In 1982, the piece sought to transform the entire urban space into an artistic stage with 7,000 oak trees. This could also be considered an especially sustainable social sculpture, since anyone who donated 500 German marks (around 250 euros) to the project was allowed to plant a little sapling that has matured into a respectable deciduous tree over the past four decades. The artist, who would have celebrated his 100th birthday in May 2021, succeeded in his ecological coup. To this day, Beuys’ Stadverwaldung (City Forestation) counts as one of the most extensive examples of German land art with worldwide recognition. “City Forestation” gave the city of Kassel a new look: here an
