Nguyễn Duy Mạnh - First Bone, Then Skin… - his first solo exhibition in Europe. The exhibition brings together two seminal bodies of work: Hồn Xiêu - Phách Lạc (Wandering Souls - Lost Spirits) - the haunting ceramics banquet, part of which currently on display at MASS MoCA (Massachusetts) - and Những Vết Thương Hở (Bare Wounds), a new series of cobalt-blue and sanguine ceramics created for Paris. Together, they reveal the artist’s singular vision: clay as a living body that bears scars, memory, and resilience. Combining stylistic glaze patterns from Chu Đậu ceramics –– its production began in the 13th century in Nam Sách county to the east of Hanoi, before declining in the 17th century –– and the kiln techniques of Bát Tràng village –– a craft village in Hanoian suburb, famous for its vibrant ceramics, he creates uniquely molded and carved pieces.

Võ An Khánh (1936–2023, Vietnam) is renowned for his black-and-white photographs of the American-Vietnam War, capturing both frontline life and human resilience. Traveling with guerrilla units in the 1960s–70s, he staged exhibitions in mangrove forests under extraordinary conditions. His iconic works, including Mobile Military Medical Clinic and Extra-curriculum Political Science Class, have since been exhibited internationally, from the International Center of Photography (New York) to the Carnegie Museum of Art (Pittsburgh) and the National Gallery Singapore.
