Grey Zone: Vietnamese Realities in Post-Wall Germany
Each Sunday afternoon, the mediators invite you to delve deeper into selected themes within the exhibition program.
As part of the recruitment agreement between the GDR and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, approximately 60,000 Vietnamese contract laborers migrated to the GDR in the 1980s. Drawing upon the works of artist Sung Tieu featured in the exhibition 1992, 2005, the tour ‘Grey Zone: Vietnamese Realities in Post-Wall Germany’ examines the significant consequences the collapse of the GDR had on these individual’s lives.
The political and social changes, as well as racist structures and discrimination prevalent at the time, influenced the identities, roles and social networks of the Vietnamese community in Germany and continue to persist into the day.
