“I’m interested in how images are being read and interpreted and understood, I think in part because how it was widely used during the Vietnam war. The Vietnam war was the most documented war, and that’s also how the world sees Vietnam.” —Dinh Q. Lê
Monuments and Memorials at STPI in Singapore marked the premiere of Dinh Q. Lê’s pivotal photography series in Asia, and also unveiled his first-ever three-dimensional weavings, which feature the recent refugee exodus from Africa and the Middle East into Southern Europe.
