Thu-Van Tran’s Rainbow Herbicides at Art on Paper 2024
Almine Rech Editions is pleased to present Thu-Van Tran’s 'Rainbow Herbicides' during the 2024 edition of Art on Paper.

This series of lithographs, limited to 12 copies and 5 Artist Proofs, has been produced in Paris on a Voirin press in collaboration with the renowned Maître d'Art Stéphane Guilbaud.

Vietnamese artist Thu-Van Tran reflects on the colonial history of French Indochina and the intersections of identity and culture. Her work attempts to visually deconstruct an insidious language, as seen in her series ‘Rainbow Herbicides,’ where small multi-colored spurts of paint emerge. This series critiques the oxymoronic term used to describe herbicides’ toxic effects, turning the page on misrepresentations of the past.
