Huong Dodinh

Over the last six decades, Huong Dodinh has devoted her practice to three central tenets—light, density, and transparency—through which she explores the fluidity of line, form, and negative space.

Published on the occasion of the artist’s first- ever solo presentation in the United States, Huong Dodinh: Transcendence brings together paintings and works on paper she has created over the course of her career, from the 1960s to the present day. Alongside an interview with the artist by Olivia Sand, a new text by Catherine David--presented in both English and French--explores Dodinh’s remarkable relationship with her work, through which she strives to harmonize relationships and engage in a meaningful exchange with the world around her. A chronology by her son, Khoa Dodinh, traces her life and career, including her emigration from Vietnam to France.
