Kentia Palm, Unique No.13, 2022
Installation view at A Lasting Truth Is Change<\/em>, Van Abbemuseum
13th Kentia palm tree used for Marcel Broodthaers\u2019s Tapis de Sable <\/em>(1974), Van Abbemuseum collection,
chair found in the museum\u2019s attic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kentia Palm, Unique No. 13<\/em> is a new series of works involving plants by Donghwan Kam. In the artist\u2019s previous work Plants<\/em> (2019\u201322), he collected soft-abandoned plants from his surroundings and for two years maintained and helped them get into the sunniest spaces in the Rijksacademie van beeldende kunsten building as a manifestation of their presence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For A Lasting Truth Is Change<\/em>, Kam places a Kentia palm tree \u2013 from a 2021\u201322 exhibition of work by Marcel van den Berg and Erwin Thomasse at the Van Abbemuseum that also referenced Broodthaer\u2019s work \u2013 on a chair that curator Yolande Zola Zoli van der Heide found in the museum\u2019s attic. Kam also made administration forms on maintaining kentia palm trees for Tapis de Sable<\/em>, which he gave to Kim Sluijter, collection registrar at the museum.

The chair remained empty on the opening day of the exhibition, as Marcel and Ewrwin’s exhibition ended one day later.

Administration Forms designed by Seokyung Kim<\/p>\n\n\n\n
