Multi-dimensional array cannot be converted to an expression tree

Most expressions can be converted to expression trees, but multi-dimensional arrays cannot be. For example, the following code causes this error:

Module Module1
    Sub Main()
        '' A multi-dimensional array cannot be converted.
        'Dim expTree As Expressions.Expression(Of Func(Of Object)) = _
        '    Function() New Integer(1, 1) {{1, 2}, {2, 3}}

        ' A one-dimensional array can be converted.
        Dim expTree2 As Expressions.Expression(Of Func(Of Object)) = _
            Function() New Integer() {1, 2, 3}
    End Sub
End Module
