Talk “Beyond the artist’s studio: The life of modern sculpture”
For the longest time, sculpture’s place was always on public sites, where it could fully utilize its combinatorial property, interact with space and light, and interlace itself with natural scenery and the public.
Yet, modern Vietnamese sculpture became subdued as it was detached from its natural habitat and inherent cohesive nature. Despite this, passionate and relentless creative efforts continue, which is evident in small-scale sculptures by individuals in private spaces.
It was such tendencies that resurrected the Vietnamese modern sculpture scene over the past decade when sculptures traveled from the artists’ studios to different environments, conversing with different contexts. These movements create an exhilarating and poetic atmosphere aiming to reimagine and reconstruct living spaces.
The talk, featuring artist Đào Châu Hải, Thái Nhật Minh, Phạm Đình Tiến and architect Hoàng Minh Tuệ, and moderated by curator Đỗ Tường Linh, opened up diverse perspectives on the development of Vietnamese sculpture, highlighting new movements, changes, dynamics, and dialogues. Additionally, drawbacks and challenges regarding the creation and preservation of sculptural spaces, as well as suggestions for future directions, will also be discussed in the upcoming event.
