Dinh Q. Lê: From Vietnam to Hollywood

Dinh Q. Lê: From Vietnam to Hollywood

Editorial Reviews Book Description Haunting and provocative, Dinh Q. Lê's billboard-scale works interweave stills from Vietnamese films with war pictures, news photographs and archival documentary images. This interweaving is literal--the artist slices giant appropriated pictures into strips and then intermingles them as if they were the wicker used to make a basket or the rags used to make a rug, a reworking of traditional weaving techniques taught to him by his grandmother. The resulting photo collage has a pixilated quality but a handmade physicality and offers an overwhelmingly large-scale juxtaposition of images that fight and question and confuse one another.~Published in conjunction with Shoshana Wayne Gallery, Elizabeth Leach Gallery, and PPOW. Essay by Chris Miles.~Interview by Mara Roth. Clothbound, 14 x 8.5 in./48 pgs / 36 color 0 BW0 duotone 0 ~ Item D20276
