DANH VO

Danh Vo’s practice unfolds through installations, sculptures, and site-specific interventions that intertwine personal and collective history. In recent years Vo’s relationship with plants has evolved due to the twin influences of the flower gardens at his farm Güldenhof north of Berlin, and his relationship with a Vietnamese-German family in the city who run a flower shop below his apartment. These relations have given Vo a perspective on plants from the spontaneously grown flowers of his gardens, to carefully cultivated commercial “cut offs” sold in the store. Rather than merely decorative, Vo sees flowers as living presences carrying stories, history and culture. A flower might suggest love, sympathy or concern, while also demonstrating the cool travel of commodities and the cultivated DNA of colonialism. Plants are incorporated into Vo’s exhibition projects, becoming active organisms capable of establishing an intimate relationship with the public.
