'Danh Vo’s conceptual, installation-based practice dissects the cultural forces and private desires that shape our experience of the world. He often employs found objects, images, and texts to animate personal narratives that refract global political histories. Published to accompany the most comprehensive museum survey to date of the Danish artist’s work, this catalogue presents for the first time an illuminating overview of Vo’s work from the past 15 years.'-excerpt from Guggenheim's website.

The catalogue includes an essay by Katherine Brinson, colour plates of exhibited works with texts by Susan Thompson, and artist biography.
