VIETNAM CONTEMPORARY ART DATABASE
About project: Vietnam Contemporary Art Database (VCAD) – formerly known as Vietnam Art Archive (ViAA) – is a public archive initiated by Heritage Space in 2020 with the aim of creating an archive of contemporary art practices in Vietnam since 1990. VCAD is operated to provide information for professionals and audiences of arts in general who want to learn systematically about Vietnamese art.
VCAD operates online and is accessible via a web page. VCAD’s archived data is divided into folders and managed similarly to an open online library. The above materials are collected by VCAD and contributed by individuals, artists, groups and organizations in the field of arts and culture who are legal authors or copyright holders of such Data.
VCAD is a long-term project and has evolved through several phases. The scope of data collection and information is based on the context, content and documents about Vietnam contributed by Vietnamese artists, Vietnamese artists who are living abroad & international artists who are living in Vietnam.
