Venus in Vietnam
A new installation
work, Venus in Vietnam, by
Vu Dan Tan and by Nguyen
Nghia Cuong focuses on the
image of femininity. The
exhibition compares and
contrasts the works of two
Hanoi artists who are a gen-

expanded meaning in the

of late twentieth century-
early 21st century Vietnam.
