Artist Bio

Dinh Q. Lê (1968 - 2024) created conceptually based multimedia work that reflects on the complex history of Vietnam, issues of war, displaced populations and how non-western cultures are depicted in western media. Lê had a solo exhibition in 2022 at the Musée du quai Branly in Paris, France, and in 2018 at the San Jose Museum of Art. In July of 2015, Tokyo’s Mori Art Museum presented a retrospective of his work. Exhibiting internationally for 25 years, Lê’s work was shown in the 2013 Carnegie International (Pittsburgh, PA), dOCUMENTA (13) (Kassel, Germany), Singapore Art Museum (Singapore), Kiev Biennial (Kiev, Ukraine), a Projects 93 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (New York, NY) and a critically acclaimed one-person exhibition at the Asia Society in New York. Lê’s work is included in numerous permanent collections, including the Museum of Modern Art (New York, NY), Ford Foundation (New York, NY), Portland Art Museum (Portland, OR), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (San Francisco, CA), The Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles, CA), Queensland Gallery of Modern Art (Brisbane, Australia), Singapore Art Museum, and the Zabludowicz Collection (London, England). Elizabeth Leach Gallery continues to represent the Estate of Dinh Q. Lê.
