Doron Langberg: Flowers

Victoria Miro presents an exhibition in Venice of landscapes and flower paintings by Doron Langberg. Flowers coincides with Night, featuring large-scale tableaux of nightclub and nocturnal beach scenes, on view at Victoria Miro, London, 26 January–28 March 2024; and Part of Your World, the artist’s first solo institutional presentation in Europe, on view at Kunsthal Rotterdam from 1 February–26 May 2024.

‘Painting them feels like painting a friend, and my motivation is the same – capturing a specificity that comes from familiarity and love.’ – Doron Langberg

Prominent among a new generation of figurative painters, Doron Langberg creates luminous works that celebrate the physicality of touch – in subject matter and process. Depicting a range of subjects, from queer love to wildflowers and sweeping landscapes, the broad scope of themes and experiences in Langberg’s work are underscored by his deeply felt use of paint. Aspects of nature are an enduring source of inspiration, resonating feelings of connection through flowers depicted in close up or as part of enveloping vistas.
