On Thursday, October 16, we welcome Horatio Nguyen to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Horatio will be discussing his current in progress personal project CHIM TROI, CA NUOC about Vietnamese-American diaspora fifty years after the Vietnam War.
Join us every Thursday evening at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 25 Dederick Street in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served.
“Meet the Artist” is made possible by a generous grant from the Arnold and Augusta Newman Foundation.
Horatio Nguyen is a New York-based filmmaker and photographer whose work spans documentary, narrative, and commercial projects. His artistic approach blends the vernacular of fiction and non-fiction storytelling, resulting in hybrid works that fuse the staged and the authentic, speaking to nuanced lyrical truths. His current personal project is a long form series of photographs from Vietnamese-American communities in the United States in dialogue with images from Vietnam, tracing the rhythms and dissonances across water and time. He is a First-Generation Vietnamese-American and son of refugees from the Vietnam War.
