"The National Gallery of Denmark wishes to be serious without seeming sombre, popular without seeming common. The National Gallery of Denmark should be a sight to see, and we should break with established patterns, break down barriers. The National Gallery of Denmark serves as a treasure trove of art, but precisely because art is also transgressive, we, too, must test established boundaries on our presentation, education, and research activities."

A crucifix on a fridge, a gilt cardboard box, and a used Mercedes engine. The internationally acclaimed Danish-Vietnamese artist Danh Vo conquers x-rummet at the National Gallery of Denmark with a subtly humorous exhibition that links personal history with wider cultural and political issues.

The exhibition "Hip Hip Hurrah” marks Vo’s first solo representation in Denmark.
