PAUL ET SES ORCHIDÉES

Paul et ses orchidées is a sequel to Paul Van Bosstraeten, cultivateur d’orchidées. The work is part of the series Musée de l’homme, for which Lennep follows eight individuals who own a special collection or who have special habits.
In this video Paul van Bosstraeten tells about his life and how he came to grow orchids. As he tells his story, we watch images of Paul’s greenhouses with the orchids we are familiar with from the video Paul Van Bosstraeten, cultivateur d’orchidées. These images alternate with recent images of orchids.
