An-My Lê on Contested Terrain

More about the book

The book features An-My Lãe's significant photographic series capturing former battlefields, training sites, and the roles of noncombatants in war, alongside new, unseen images. Curators Dan Leers and Lisa Sutcliffe contribute essays, while an interview with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Viet Thanh Nguyen explores how Lãe's work challenges and enriches the understanding of conflict's impact on American identity. This comprehensive exhibition publication offers a deep reflection on the landscapes of war and their complex narratives.
