Vietnamese contemporary artists in Hong Kong

Time Ligaments
14 May-16 Aug 2009
10 Chancery Lane Gallery ART PROJECTS and ANNEX, Hong Kong
Co-curated by Dinh Q. Lê and Zoe Butt in cooperation with San Art, Ho Chi Minh City
Showcasing nine contemporary Vietnamese voices through painting, video, photography, sculptural installation and works on paper, this exhibition melds mis-placed local memory with contemporary fact and ritual, these nine provocateurs drawing insightful comment on the lived dilemma of a country whose physical and psychological character is brilliantly, yet controversially layered in assumption and stereotype.
Participating Artists:
Khánh Công Bùi
Tiffany Chung
Phù Nam Thúc Hà
Christine Nguyễn
Thi Trinh Nguyễn (whose video was first presented at Nha San Studio not long ago)
[Correction: the video in this exhibition is being shown for the first time, and will be shown later this year in Oslo]
Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn
Tuấn Thái Nguyễn
Tú Đức Nguyễn (who recently exhibited in Hanoi and whose exhibition in HCMC open on 07 May)
Rich Streitmatter – Trần
Hi Brian, just a quick correction: my video in this show is not the same one as the one shown at Nha San. Thanks.
