San Art | Vietnam
![](/media/2011/6/S%C3%A0n_Art.png)
Sàn Art, founded in 2007 in Ho Chi Minh City as an artist-led platform, has since grown into a leading independent arts organisation in Vietnam and the region. Maintaining a commitment to grassroots support for local and international artists and cultural work, Sàn Art is also a site for critical discourse with regular educational initiatives.
Aside from the exhibition programmes (more than 110 since 2007), Sàn Art’s past projects include the artist-residency Sàn Art Laboratory (2012–2015) and Conscious Realities (2013–2016), a series of publications and events, inviting writers, artists, thinkers and cultural workers with a focus on the Global South. In 2018, Sàn Art launched Uncommon Pursuits, a curatorial training school, and a new gallery with a focus on dialogues between modern and contemporary art in Vietnam and the region. That same year it also launched A. Farm (2018–2020), an international artist residency programme co-founded with MoT+++ and the Nguyen Art Foundation.
Opening a new chapter in the organisation’s history, Sàn Art is expanding as a community hub to support and foster innovative and experimental practices and perspectives.
