Description
Co-organised by the Department of Fine Arts, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Library and Garden Streams, the exhibition “Nàng Tự Do – The archive of Art In the Camps (Garden Streams) and the traces of Vietnamese boatpeople in Hong Kong” features the life of Vietnamese boatpeople in the detention camps in Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s and will be held at the CUHK Main Library from 21 October 2020 to 16 April 2021. The collections include a number of detailed photographs taken in the camps, which have never been displayed. The exhibition aims to discuss the relationship between “refugees” and contemporary society by reviewing this unique piece of almost forgotten history.
