摘要

Everyone knows what a tree is. Definitions vary slightly, but no one looks at a tree and says, "What is that?" You may not know the species name, you may not know the common name, you may not know whether the tree is native or exotic or how it functions, but you know when you look at it that it is a tree.Whatever your concept of a tree may be, Trees-the magnificently illustrated catalog for an exhibition by that name presented at the Fondation Car-tier pour l'art contemporain in Parislast year-is designed to greatly expand it. The tome in its entirety constitutes the broadest possible conceptual, scientific, philosophical, and pictorial compendium on the subject of trees. Indeed, it is so far-ranging and inclusive, and even dreamlike at times, that some parts of the book seem to have almost nothing to do with trees; in addition, tremendous effort is required to understand the book's organization. But the book is wide in scope for a reason, and an exploration of its unusual perspective has its rewards.
