CUONG VONG CUNG NHAN LOAI - MANKIND'S CRAZY AMBITIONS By Vuong Linh Dan, Nguyen Hong Nhung, Jon Stahn.
The exhibition Cuong vong cung nhan loai or Mankinds crazy ambitions is a
collaboration between the Vietnamese artists Vuong Linh Dan and Nguyen Hong Nhung and Jon Stahn who is a Danish artist.
The three artists have bridged their respective cultural backgrounds and have worked as a single unit producing the exhibition in two weeks in Hanoi.
The artworks in the show utilize the esthetics of ads from magazines, TV-commercials and billboards, and exploit the language of commercial advertisement to transmit alternative messages.
The artists present a series of mega prints on vinyl canvas, neon signs, souvenir t-shirts and a brand new sound track made for the show.
HANOI FUTURE ART is a non-commercial artist initiative for the development of experimental art in Hanoi. The aim is to facilitate a creative cross-cultural dialogue between local and international artists through workshops and private exhibitions.
HANOI FUTURE ART is sponsored by the Danish Arts Council.
WHAT?
NGUYEN KHE, PHUONG VU MANH, ROBERT A. MODY & JES BRINCH. HANOI FUTURE ART 001.
The exhibition WHAT? pose the question about what is going on in Vietnam now. What is the relation between the past, the present and the future of Vietnam? What kind of reality is it? What dreams do people have? What is power? What values do people have here now? What kind of business is going on and not least how much does it cost. The exhibition is made as a series of collaborations between the artists in different constellations.
The wall-installation is a collaboration between Phuong Vu Manh, Nguyen Khe and Jes Brinch.
