Viêt view - Jean-Dominique Burton

Since 1976, numerous journeys to the Himalayas have enabled Jean-Dominique Burton to witness the survival of Tibetan people in exile. He experiences Vietnam as a breath of fresh air and a confrontation to a part of Asia he only knew through war stories that haunted his childhood. He pictures the Vietnam of today, traveled up and down, from North to South, discovering the country through its minorities, life, death, the cult of ancestors and the few remaining monks, contrasting with the new religion of the Dollar God. A fascinating journey that allows one to experience the past and the future of this country, provoking thoughts on the validity of what we call progress.

This book bears witness to all of this through the photographs of Jean-Dominique Burton and the preface of France Borel.
