Joel Tauber fell in love with a tree. A sycamore tree. Lost in a sea of concrete on a Rose Bowl parking lot in Pasadena.
Tauber chronicles his two-year affair in the remarkable Sick-Amour installation at Los Angeles Projects, whose centerpiece is a tree sculpted from video equipment. Determined to improve his tree's living conditions, "Tauber explores elemental philosophical questions about our relationhsips to nature and the environment in an often quixotic approach," says the press release. An intriguing, whimsical, decidedly romantic reportage.photo of artwork LA Frog
