A posthumous exhibition titled "Remembrance: A Tribute to the Work of Dinh Q. Lê" is on view at 10 Chancery Lane in Hong Kong from March 20 to May 23, 2026. Curated by David Elliott, the show features key works by the late Vietnamese artist, including his series of manipulated photographs that slice and weave the iconic 1972 image "The Terror of War" into pixelated grids, alongside pieces like "Skin on Skin Black Mixed No. 9" that critique the influx of Western pornography into Vietnam after internet legalization.
The exhibition matters because it offers a focused, deeply felt memorial to Dinh Q. Lê, whose practice interrogated the ethics of viewing trauma and atrocity through photography. By disrupting the instant consumption of violent images, Lê's work challenges viewers to confront their own voyeurism and the responsibilities of looking, making this show a timely meditation on image saturation and historical memory in the visual arts.
