Note du spécialiste

Noll believed, 'even once it has been cut down, a tree continues to live...' and in the present Moïse sculpture we find a form born from and referencing the tree out of which it came. This large scale sculpture is a superb example of Noll's distinct style and ability to transform the raw ruggedness of wood into a spectacular form echoing the spirit of nature.
