Generations: 40 Hues Between Black and White

This exhibition marks the fortieth anniversary of the exodus of over a million Vietnamese people to other countries following the end of the Vietnam conflict. The exhibition aims to present a survey of thematic concerns of artists of Vietnamese heritage and artists inspired by Vietnam over the past forty years. Themes such as change, displacement, identity, and memory are particularly relevant. By presenting many "hues" of artworks, the exhibition aims to express the multiplicity of generations of artists and viewpoints, and to counter black-or-white, good-or-bad judgment and politics.

Works of art produced in any media since 1975 will be considered. All media will be considered, including video work submitted on self-playing and looping DVD disks. Venues have a limited amount of video monitors and DVD devices; artists may need to provide their own equipment. The exhibition is held simultaneously at two venues, and work will be displayed in one venue based on the curators' discretion and size of the work.

Entry deadline: October 31, 2015. Entry fee: $15 per piece, maximum 20 pieces. Exhibition dates: December 5-19, 2015. Work samples should include 1-20 images and 0-3 videos. Open internationally to artists from every country. All shipping costs are paid by the artist, both to and from the gallery. Entry fee is non-refundable and does not guarantee acceptance. Entry fee proceeds go towards offsetting costs for this exhibition and future programming at the non-profit venues. Curated by Dinh Q. Lê and Stephen Anderson.
