This video is a shorter version of one I made for visual artist Susan Armington's Talking Suitcases exhibit at the University of Minnesota's Nash Gallery. In September 2009, Hmong and Vietnamese elders gathered at Hmong American Partnership in St. Paul to share stories and memories.
For more information on Susan Armington and the Talking Suitcases, see thesusanarmington.com. For information on the exhibit at the Nash Gallery, where it will be on display through December 17, see nash.umn.edu. Admission is free.
The Katherine E. Nash Gallery, created in the 1970s by founder Katherine E. Nash, a former faculty member at the University of Minnesota, is located in the Regis Center for Art, on the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota. The gallery's beautiful 4,900 square foot exhibition space has facilitated shows from both nationally, and locally renowned artists.
The Katherine E. Nash Gallery facilitates numerous artistic and cultural events, and is an integral part of the artistic community at the University of Minnesota.
