Tracing Kiều is an independent art and literary initiative in dialogue with The Tale of Kiều — Vietnam’s most celebrated literary work and one of the great epics of world literature.

Led from Berlin, the initiative brings together artists, writers, scholars, and cultural practitioners from the Vietnamese diaspora and from Vietnam. It unfolds across three formats: The Kiều Complex (exhibition), the Kiều Salon (public program), and The Kiều Reader (anthology).
