HÀ NỘI — The exhibition At the Intersection: A Book Showcase from the Netherlands displays 18 publications from The Eriskay Connection publishing house conveying a diverse range of topics in Hà Nội.
The exhibition is curated in collaboration with the publishing house focusing on contemporary storytelling at the intersection of photography, research and writing, in order to provide new and necessary insights into the world.
After being displayed in Đà Nẵng, the exhibition takes place at Matca Space for Photography in Hà Nội, introducing the landscape of maritime transport in the Netherlands as sketched from personal interests in I’m Looking for a Ship, looking for clues of women’s contributions in modern nuclear and computer science through Klara and the Bomb.
The authors demonstrated multi-dimensional, multi-linear perspectives when standing at the intersection of past, present and future.
Horse and Novegen reflect on the contradictory symbiotic relationship between humans and domestic animals, while personal experiences under a population policy in The Land Of Promises or witty satire on a failed experiment that troubled the scientific community from The Speed Of Light.
The usage of alternative visual materials such as archival images, topographic maps, scientific documents, or images from family albums demonstrates efforts in diversifying storytelling strategies within the domains of photography and printed matter.
The exhibition, supported by the Dutch embassy in Việt Nam, runs until the end of February at 48 Ngọc Hà Street. Opening time from 7am to 7pm. — VNS
