A guide to deciphering the Fleurop list, with photographs of fake plants wearing the ribbons of the corresponding national flags. The Fleurop list is a set of code names, plant names for friendly countries, used by the German secret service BND to refer to states it spied on, a practice that recently caused a scandal. It shows how everyone in Europe has always spied on everyone else, and the clichés and images in circulation between states: why is the code name for Turkey a hemp plant, but the one for the US a flowering hydrangea? Sebastian Utzni is a conceptual artist based in Zurich.
