Description

The exhibition explores the multi-layered intersections of art, history, and memory in Vietnam since the end of the Vietnam War – in Vietnam known as the American War – and national reunification.

With its history of French colonialism, American imperialism, Soviet-style socialism, and relative economic liberalization during the doi moi period, Vietnam is a country of strong divisions, both internally and between the homeland and the international diaspora.

Vietnam in Transition, 1976–Present is generously supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
