Hanoi-Don’t Call It Art



19 Nov – 31 Dec 2022
Mơ Art Space
B3 Floor, no. 136 Hang Trong Street, Hoan Kiem District

From the organizer:

“I could not imagine then that some of these photos would become the only documentation, for example, of the first stirrings of a performance art scene in Vietnam. Now, 25 years later in Germany – as an observer or a temporary visitor at best, who gleans news about Vietnam’s well-connected international art scene from daily social network chats with friends there – all these works and photos appear to me in quite a different light. They are no longer just gifts, pictures forgotten or discarded as worthless, but rather artworks that have written contemporary history. They had once been a provocative force in their time and place. Here today, this force may seem spent. But to me, now more than ever, it seems as if the artists presented in this book, with their radical stances, were far ahead of their time. Perhaps that is precisely why they fell by the wayside. They became legends before their work could become a permanent and officially recognized part of Vietnam’s art.”

Artists: Nguyễn Minh Thành, Nguyễn Quang Huy, Trương Tân

The exhibited pieces were created during the 1990s – a period of significance

Hanoi-A Shift in Perspective



Opening: Nov 18, 04 pm
Exhibition: Nov 18 – 22, 10 am – 07 pm
Fine Art Exhibition House, 16 Ngo Quyen Street, Hoan Kiem District
Registration link

From the organizer:

Everything in this life carries a multitude of ideas that need to change the point of view, we can find in them new layers of meaning. ‘A Shift in Perspective’ is moving continuously, from position to observation method, thereby establishing a thread connecting the inner notion with the outside observation. We look at the tenuous ties that bind us to, and repel us from one’s ideas to another by the transformation itself.

‘A Shift in Perspective’ is a group exhibition, presenting 12 thesis projects, 12 points of view, 12 frames of reference by students majoring in Graphic Design at the London College for Design and Fashion (LCDF), Hanoi. Students look at this notion of a shift as a collective to reflect critically upon the fluctuating timeline of their own and see how they have grown from one point to another in design thinking and methods. Each work is a dialogue of each individual with himself about the changes in perspective.

Hanoi-Documentary Exhibition: Repurposing Industrial Heritage




Opening: Nov 18, 03 pm
Exhibition: Nov 18 – Dec 11
282 Workshop, 156 Phu Vien, Bo De, Long Bien District

From the organizer:

Following the series of events “Repurposing Industrial Heritage 2022 – Innovation & Sustainability”, as part of the EUNIC project “Repurposing Industrial Heritage”, the “Repurposing Industrial Heritage” exhibition seeks to provide perspectives on the possibilities of transforming industrial facilities by presenting examples of industrial heritage transformation in countries such as France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom that are at the forefront of transformation trends in Europe. As a result, it raises the question of “what future is there for industrial production facilities in Hanoi in light of the city’s official decision to relocate 09 old industrial facilities with significant cultural and historical values”.

Through this exhibition, we hope the community will gain an objective understanding of industrial heritage value, as well as practical and theoretical evidence for urban reconstruction based on successful transformations of industrial heritage throughout the world.

Hanoi-Piece, You, I

Until Dec 4, 10 am – 08 pm

From the organizer:

TACH would be honored to present “Piece, I, You” – a solo exhibition by artist Luong Van Viet, curated by Do Tuong Linh, at Nga Art Space this November.

“Piece, I, You” was born from the artist’s concerns through his day-by-day observations. As the artist once confided, “A piece is a disjoint part. You and I, each of us is a piece of family, time, friend or money, but we are also most importantly each a piece of our inner selves, wherein lies our spirituality.”

Month of Arts Practice (MAP) abbreviated as MAP, is an annual art project of Heritage Space.

The work results will be presented to the public through Artist’s talk, especially during the Final Exhibition 2022 at the end of November in Hanoi.

There are 10 artists from Germany, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam participating in this project: Oscar Lebeck, Miho Shimizu, Bae Byung Wook, Ryusuke Ito, Sodam Lim, Nguyễn Minh Hoàng, Mi Fa, Jo Ngô & Lê Minh Châu and Lê Tú Anh.
