From Hanoi Grapevine
Following the success of previous seasons, the annual exhibition The Grapevine Selection – Lựa chọn của Grapevine 2024 will open on 14 June 2024, at Institute of Smart City and Management (ISCM), 232/6 Vo Thi Sau, District 3, HCMC, featuring more than 40 pieces of varied forms of expression from 10 artists.
In 2024, the Hanoi Grapevine team wants to focus on and promote the flexible perspectives and standards of pioneering organisers and individuals who invest in research and private art collections, each with their distinct perspective that is independent and full of aesthetics, as well as transcending the oppressive biases of the current society. Therefore, this year’s art advisory board is diversified, including art researcher/curator Do Tuong Linh, collector/head of an art organisation Ariel Pham, and international researcher/collector Sophie Huang.
With strict criteria of the Art Advisory Board, the exhibition features the artists’ most recent works, each differentiated by its artistic style. The exhibition focuses on artists and works with notable representative value, setting milestones for the future of long-term art archiving and collecting. Stretching from the series “Creation” by Nguyễn Đức Tín and subtle yet thoughtful works by Ngô Đình Bảo Châu (HCMC), self-portraits by Huy Phan (Da Lat), films about the marginalized community by Mai Huyền Chi (Da Nang), lacquer creations by Lê Thừa Tiến (Hue), to the latest “Vũng Hoa” by Nguyễn Duy Mạnh, contemporary narrative works by Nguyễn Thị Diệp and Thùy Anh Đặng, and the search for Phùng Nguyên’s ancient culture by Lâm Na (Hanoi), The Grapevine Selection offers a universal yet equally rich and multi-faceted view of Vietnamese contemporary art.
With the vision of The Grapevine Selection exhibition as a contribution to the foundation of the creative industry and art market in Vietnam, the choice of space enhances the experience of contemporary works while also partly facilitating a dialogue between history and modernity, tradition and innovation. Following its previous location in a more than 100-year-old French building in the center of Quang Trung street in Hanoi, The Grapevine Selection exhibition will continue in a modern and flexible venue at the Institute of Smart City and Management, District 3, HCMC.
