High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ran Morin (1958- ) is an Israeli artist, known for his statues involving full-sized living trees. Much of his work is found in Israel, notably the Olive Tree and surrounding park on the Ramat Rachel kibbutz. He currently lives in New York. Morin began his creative work in the mid-70s with the construction of a computer model of the illusion of abstract forms of movement, at the Weizmann Institute. In the early '80s he began to focus on integrating nature (mainly trees) with modern sculpture materials. "Olive Columns" is an environmental sculpture at the edge of Jerusalem, in the middle of the Olive Park. The park is near Kibbutz Ramat Rachel. This work was finished by Morin in October 1991. It consists of three 15-meter columns, topped by three olive trees, now decades old. There is a series of steps at the base of the pillars leading up to them. A computerized system built into the statue monitors the soil at the top and fertilizes it over time.
