ON “PROJECT ART”

Reed Island (Red River) Talk Series, IN:ACT 2022

September 2022

Founded in 2010 by artists Nguyen Phuong Linh and Bill Nguyen, and coordinated by Gabby Miller, IN:ACT is a performance art event that brings international artists to collaborate and exchange with artists from Vietnam. IN:ACT 2022 is a part of Nha San Collective’s “Bến” – a project within the framework of Documenta 15, co-organized by Nha San Collective and Á Space, and co-curated by Vu Duc Toan and Van Do. The project received substantial support from benefactors such as Le Thuan Uyen, Duong Nghiem, Vo Tuan Son, Duan Museum, and the valued companionship and support of NAF.

IN:ACT 2022 includes a series of live performances that took place at WH22, Kassel, Germany on 01 September 2022. Additionally, a diverse program of talks, performances, and film screenings also unfolded on boats traveling from Ngoc Thuy Wharf to the Reed Island (Red River), as well as at Nha San Ngoc Thuy and Nguyen Manh Duc’s pottery studio in Bat Trang Village on 02 & 03 September 2022.
