Archiving Vietnamese Revolutionary Visual Culture
June 27 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm BST
Join Minh Nguyen from the Dogma Collection, for a presentation on the vibrant visual language of Vietnamese revolutionary culture. Through rare archival materials and comparative analysis, we will examine how Vietnam’s socialist and anticolonial movements created visual narratives that resonated across international solidarity networks.
The evening explores the striking parallels between Vietnamese revolutionary graphics and grassroots movements worldwide, examining how visual culture became a tool of resistance and identity formation during the era of decolonization and anti-imperialism. Nguyen will also discuss the particular work of independent archival practices in preserving histories of state socialist cultures.
The presentation features a curated display of original Vietnamese revolutionary materials alongside comparative pieces from MayDayRooms.
