Group of Four Trees

Group of Four Trees is an abstract outdoor sculpture completed in 1972 by the French artist Jean Dubuffet. Commissioned by the American banker David Rockefeller for the public plaza of One Chase Manhattan Bank Plaza (now 28 Liberty Street) in the Financial District of Manhattan, it was Dubuffet's first outdoor sculpture installed in the United States and, at four stories, among the largest in New York City at the time. The work belongs to Dubuffet's Hourloupe cycle (1962–1974), a body of paintings, sculptures, and architectural projects characterized by flat interlocking forms outlined in heavy black, which the artist developed from ballpoint-pen doodles made during a phone call in 1962.
