  • Reinhard Reitzenstein RCA (born 1949) is an environmental sculptor. He creates works through which he investigates ways to unite and interconnect nature, culture, science, and technology. He works in different media and areas, sometimes with the help of volunteers, making installations and sculpture using different materials, including trees, large-scale drawings, prints and sound art. Following in the wake of earthworks sculptor Robert Smithson in 1969, who turned a tree on its head and stuck it in the ground, Reitzenstein transforms living trees into sculptures. Much of his work centers around the tree as an archetype for the self and the symbiotic relationship humans share with the forests of the world. The tree serves as a marker of the ravages upon, and attempts at reconciliation with nature, he believes. His work is said to illustrate the mechanisms with which trees not only stabilize and rejuvenate our environment but also our senses and our evolution as a species and to represent a desire for preservation of the environment.
