On 30th April 2009, the end of the Vietnam War has its 30th anniversary. On the occasion of this memorable date, Tom Abraham, a repeatedly awarded photographer, gives a unique insight into the present social life in the so much devastated country. Punctually on the anniversary day, a complete Vietnam portfolio will be launched by the artist, who currently lives in Frankfurt/Main. It mirrors moments of the present life in Vietnam, and it documents the influences of the long lasting peace process as well as the cultural changes in the Asian country.
With more than 300 pictures, Tom Abraham’s portfolio is in this extent unique until now. The impressive photos were taken during a journey through Vietnam in 2007. They can be categorized into four topics: souls, culture, nature and outtakes. The pictures deliver a wide-ranging but also a subtle insight into the country and its customs. Vietnam has been mourning the death of more than three million people – the second largest number of casualties since 1945. With the launch of his website on 30th April and his homage to Vietnam, the artist wants to stamp a mark.
The website’s design is mainly based on puristic elements. What is even more extraordinary is the presentation of his photos in two languages: English and Vietnamese. The avoidance of language options is a sign in order to make a contribution towards an international dialogue. |
