Artist
An-My Lê
b. 1960 · Vietnamese-American
An-My Lê creates large-format photographs around war, military training, landscape and American power. Her own history as a refugee from Vietnam informs a practice that examines conflict through distance, rehearsal and environment rather than frontline reportage.
