Free exhibition at the Batsford Gallery traces the Christmas tree back to an instinct its curator says is older than any religion
Twenty-eight artists are asking why we fell a young conifer every December, carry it indoors and hang lights on it, in an exhibition arriving on Hackney Road in the run-up to Christmas.
All Trees Are Political: Particularly at Christmas, curated by Margate artist Philippa Beale, will be at the Batsford Gallery from Friday 11 to Sunday 20 December, following its opening in Margate during National Tree Week.
