Tree Art
The Bonsai Tree throughout the Ages
Everybody has heard of the Bonsai tree but very few people know anything about the history of the miniature shrub or where the tradition came from.
Bonsai is a Japanese term which, in its native language, translates to mean “tray gardening”. This term describes exactly what bonsai is as it is a tree which is grown in a small pot or tub enabling it to be kept indoors. These trees are not always genetically predisposed to be small and so they are kept this way through careful pruning. The ability to care for a bonsai tree, keeping it small and healthy, is an art form in itself. The trees are commonly pruned in to an aesthetically pleasing shape, another reason why they are seen as works of art and not just as plants.
The term bonsai is widely known and understood and yet the art was originally found in China, by the name of penjing. The Japanese art of bonsai stemmed from this and so is actually more modern than the Chinese. However, the Japanese version is the one which is more widely known.
Discoveries have been made in Egyptian tombs of sketches showing miniature trees in pots. These are thought to have been kept for decorative purposes and the pictures date back to 4000 years ago! After this time there is evidence to suggest that trees were transported in the caravans of Asia as they travelled around as they were used for their medicinal properties should someone have fallen ill.
The art of bonsai as we know it stems from the Chinese art of penjing, which is a 2000 year old tradition. It was brought to Japan somewhere between the 7th – 9th centuries by the Imperial Embassies to Tang China. Initially it was enjoyed only by the nobility and was not a hobby which was enjoyed by the masses. However, over time it began to filter down through the social hierarchy and became something which much of the population enjoyed.
The practise of pruning and shaping miniature trees is still in place in both China and Japan. However, the Chinese tend to keep them for outdoor displays and so, although still smaller than normal trees, they are somewhat larger than the Japanese versions, who create the pieces of art to be displayed primarily in the home.
For anyone considering turning their hand to this hobby, it is well worth reading up on the subject beforehand as the trees require careful nurturing. It is not just the leaves which require trimming, the roots need to be tended to also and the amount of water they require is practically an art form in itself. Information on this is widely available on the Internet, meaning that anyone serious about trying this should be able to do so successfully.

Bisj-Poles: Sculptures from the Rain Forest $719.1 New – * A richly illustrated essay on the exceptional sculptures from the Asmat people in Papua New Guinea* For all those interested in Oceanic art, or ethnographic art in general Bisj poles are long, figuratively-carved tree trunks from the southwest of New Guinea.

Blackberry Belle $16.98 Greg Dulli returns to his Twilight Singers project with the atmospheric Blackberry Belle. This time around, the dirtily soulful self-hater/lover is joined at one point or another by multi-instrumentalist Mathias Schneeberger, guitarist Alvin Youngblood Hart, Galactic drummer Stanton Moore, the incomparable Petra Haden, and Mark Lanegan, who takes main vocal duties for the shadowy devil of closer “Number Nine.” Apollonia even makes an appearance as a backing vocalist for a few tracks. Somehow, even with its grainy appropriations of trip-hop (especially “Teenage Wristband,” which sounds like a holdover from the first half of the Singers’ 2000 debut), everything on Blackberry Belle begins to eventually sound like Leonard Cohen. The moody black-and-white palm tree cover art is no joke — this is an album that views sunlight through the cracked blinds of a claustrophobic hotel lounge. “There’s a riot goin’ on/Inside of me/Won’t you come inside/See what I see?,” “I think we’re lost, don’t worry/I’ve been here before,” “If you’re in trouble then I’ll follow” — it’s melancholy and death wishes in the first person here, and love only exists as a means to a bitter end. These are themes that Dulli has made a habit of discussing; nevertheless, they’re made newly potent over Blackberry’s dusky, shifting rhythms. Things are too scary to be danceable, although the album definitely has a groove. “Decatur St.” mixes Massive Attack with Afghan Whigs, while “Follow You Down” is shimmering and stripped-down, with only frail guitar and piano to guide its death wish lyrics. Drummer Moore injects some funk into “Feathers,” and “Esta Noche” finds the inherent beat in a European dial tone. Quietly building opener “Martin Eden” might make the defining statement of the record with its initial lines: “Black out the windows/It’s party time.” Cohen’s melancholy is coursing through Dulli’s tortured veins; it’s good to see that he’s still getting top-notch talent to aid i… |

Britten: Songs & Proverbs of William Blake $21.98 Gerald Finley’s collection of music for baritone by Benjamin Britten includes two songs cycles, Songs and Proverbs of William Blake (1965), written for Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, and Tit for Tat, student pieces using texts by Walter de la Mare, given its premiere in 1968 by John Shirley-Quirk. There is also a generous assortment of folk song arrangements and settings of texts by Goethe, John Hughes, and Ronald Duncan. These songs testify to the range of Finley’s skill; he brings to them the same interpretive thoughtfulness and insight he gives his operatic roles, and he entirely avoids the overly articulated mannerisms that frequently afflict classically trained singers when attempting music that is rooted in an earthier, folk tradition. It is one of his singular accomplishments that he demonstrates with startling clarity the extent to which the Britten art songs, for all the sophistication of their construction, are melodically rooted solidly in British folk song. The result is an album with a satisfying stylistic consistency, with no artificial demarcation between high and low art. The songs showcase the breadth of Finley’s interpretive expertise, from the genuinely spooky menace of the two settings of Blake’s “A Poison Tree,” to the shameless silliness of “The Crocodile” and “The Deaf Woman’s Courtship,” and the ardor of “Lemady” and “Evening.” Finley’s creamy baritone is sleek but rich, and the aptness and control of his phrasing are a marvel. His tone, which he shades with infinite variety in his sensitivity to the text and music, is consistently gorgeous. He and his longtime collaborator pianist Julius Drake have a confident familiarity that makes the songs fresh with their nuanced spontaneity. Hyperion’s sound is clean, clear, and lively, with a good sense of presence. ~ Stephen Eddins, Rovi |
