A great artist on the French scene, Thu-Van Tran now enjoys international recognition. In particular, she presented a masterful installation at the 2017 Venice International Art Biennale; while in 2018, she was among the nominees for the Marcel Duchamp Prize. She has just completed a major in-situ commission at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh (United States), as well as at the Bourse de Commerce – Pinault Collection in Paris.

The museum highlights her singular artistic universe, imbued with a dual Franco-Vietnamese culture; the common history of the two countries and the visible or invisible heritage still inscribed in the language, the bodies in Vietnam; the lasting transformation of landscapes and the issues raised around the living. The exhibition will interweave historical narratives and personal mythologies, existing works and new productions.
