From Manzi:

Manzi Art Space and Hanoi Doclab are proud to present ‘Second Opinion’ – a group photography exhibition featuring works by Nguyễn Thị Huệ, Hà Đào, Hạnh Trần, Việt Vũ, Lê Xuân Tiến, Nguyễn Đức Huy, Mai Phạm.

‘The several different series of photographs presented in this exhibition were developed out of a long-term workshop experience at Hanoi DocLab and produced in 2017. Each of the photographers located a public or private landscape that held meaning for them and for a number of months explored that photographically. The projects were developed out of group critique sessions with participants sharing their works-in-progress with the others also producing their own series. It was a highly supportive, nurturing and ultimately collaborative effort.

So the opportunity to exhibit the results of that process presented a moment to continue the collaboration – the curators of this exhibition came through the workshop and have seen all the portfolios developed from the beginning, they know the difficulty and the processes intimately and have brought them to this realization on the wall before you.

This is the second group exhibition of DocLab’s photography work. The first, in 2013, was called “Autopsy Of Days” – a title suggesting a kind of clinical examination, a post-mortem by the photographers in examining their own lives, their own time within their own city of Hanoi. In medicine, when patients receive a difficult diagnosis from a doctor and are uncertain about how to proceed with treatment, often they will get a second opinion from another medical professional in order to confirm, dispute or amend the original finding.

So here, by a different group, is a second look’
