THE OTHER SIDE OF NOW

22 August 2024 - 20 July 2025

Participating: Tu?n Andrew Nguy?n

Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (Zeitz MOCAA) invites you to the opening of The Other Side of Now, a solo exhibition of film and sculpture by Vietnamese American artist Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn on Thursday, 22 August at 6 pm.
 The Other Side of Now explores the transnational entanglements created by colonisation and war. Particularly attending to the erased voices of Vietnamese, Senegalese, and Moroccan history, the exhibition proposes a space for communal healing and remembrance. 
Nguyễn’s films move along spectrums of fact and fiction, past and present, memory and forgetting. He uses the power of storytelling to create speculative visions of difficult histories, opening a pathway of empathy and healing for both the subjects and viewers. In letters to a lost family member, imagined conversations between generations, or reincarnation as a means of healing from physical trauma, his work looks at hard pasts to realise healed futures.
