Vietnamese artist Doan Hoang Lam is a painter of the unseen, of the ephemera of processions, of life cycles, of the tantalizing cerebral realms of desire, orchestrated with a precision and sense of weightlessness that draws the viewer in, like walking through an alluring evening fog.
An accomplished and well-regarded artist, Lam has been featured innumerous group shows and solo exhibits in Thailand and Vietnam. However, this exhibit “Shades of Time” is the first opportunity for the American public to experience Lam’s artistry.

Like an ethnographer’s observations of indigenous terrain, the work of painter Doan Xuan Tang incites the viewer with vibrant paintings that liken the ingenuity of poetic field notes: part documentation and part expression. Tang’s passionate paintings translate the artist’s experiences of studying the mountainous culture and scenery in the remote Northwest Vietnam.
While Tang’s work has been exhibited extensively in Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Dubai, the upcoming exhibition at the International Modern Art Gallery marks Tang’s first exhibition in the United States
