 *Please join IAO Gallery, IdeaLAB and Sustainable OKC this Saturday for a
screening of the film Sick Amour.*

Sick Amour is a lighthearted documentary and love story celebrating the
forlorn and lonely tree
that artist Joel Tauber adopted in the middle of a giant parking lot.

Joel Tauber has fallen in love with a beautiful tree stuck in the middle of
a giant parking lot in front of the Rose Bowl.  Surrounded by asphalt, the
tree suffered from a lack of space and water and was burned by the
asphalt surrounding the tree.  Cars hit the tree, pests invaded the tree,
and still the tree lived.  Joel devoted himself to improving the lot of the
tree and has documented his efforts in Sick Amour.
