Collection Launch Event: Hanoi Grapevine’s Finest

Organizer: Southeast Asia Digital Library (SEADL)

Type/Location: Virtual

Description:

Hanoi Grapevine’s Finest (HGF)—an annual, audience-nominated recognition of outstanding contemporary art projects in Vietnam, running since 2019—is now hosted on the Southeast Asia Digital Library. This conversation marks the launch and explores what it means for a grassroots, bottom-up archive to enter an international digital library consortium. A cultural practitioner, an anthropologist, and a digital librarian think through questions of whose knowledge counts, how digital archives shape research narratives, and what happens when an audience-led record meets the infrastructure of international scholarly preservation.

Speakers:

  • Nguyễn Tú Hằng – Director of Hanoi Grapevine

  • Emily Zinger – Southeast Asia Digital Librarian

  • Đỗ Tường Linh – Director, Nguyen Wahed Gallery and Art Curator Vincom Center for Contemporary Art
