In the Parcours sector, in collaboration with gallery Kiang Malingue, we presents Trương Công Tùng's In The Temporary Forms....It Dies Here and Is Born There… brings together interactive installations, sculptures and a single-channel video in a garden environment.
For Trương Công Tùng, a garden is a versatile, permutable and moving site, “a living entity capable of birth, mutation, and rebirth in different contexts and conditions.” In this garden of life forms, Trương Công Tùng makes use of an intricate array of materials, soil, cicadas, fabrics, wood, electrical wires, mainboards, sensors, wax, sap, and silkworm cocoons, alongside ephemeral elements like humidity, time, and space. Experienced as an organic whole, the artworks consider different entryways through which one may venture into the unknown.
Galerie Bao is proud to announce that Trương Công Tùng is a joint winner of the Arnaldo Pomodoro Sculpture Prize – 8th edition, alongside Bronwyn Katz, Dan Lie, Yu Ji and Luana Vitra. A gesture of solidarity unanimously praised by the jury and the two foundations, in tribute to Arnaldo Pomodoro, who passed away on 22 June 2025.
Galerie Bao is proud to represent Phan Quang and his series Re/cover (2013–2016) at the Rencontres d’Arles photography festival. Phan Quang has been shortlisted among the seven finalists for the 2026 Prix Découverte Louis Roederer. The finalists’ exhibition, The Best Possible Way to Tell the Truth…, is curated by Nadine Hounkpatin.
Richie Nath, peintre queer birman en exil et en quête de devenir.
L’artiste, en exil à Paris depuis le coup d’État de la junte militaire en 2021, expose ses œuvres jusqu’au 17 juin à la galerie Bao, dans le 11e arrondissement. Ses œuvres éclatantes constituent à la fois un acte de résistance contre l’armée et contre la répression de la communauté LGBTQ + dans son pays d’origine.
De sa première vie à Rangoun, il se remémore surtout les contes que lui racontait sa mère avant de s’endormir, des récits folkloriques dans lesquels les princesses se transformaient en ogres. L’exil a balayé tout le reste. « En fuyant mon pays six mois après le coup d’État de 2021, j’ai dû abandonner bien plus qu’un foyer. J’ai également dû renoncer à mes aspirations et à mes désirs, à la façon dont je me voyais progresser. Alors, quand je suis arrivé à Paris, je suis reparti de zéro. » Un arrachement, puis une seconde naissance.

Trương Công Tùng is taking part in the 8th edition of the Arnaldo Pomodoro Sculpture Prize, featuring four other finalist artist: Bronwyn Katz, Dan Lie, Yu Ji and Luana Vitra. The exhibition Dancing at the Edge of the World, is curated by Federico Giani and Chiara Nuzzi.
According to the Prize regulations, the Jury is required to select a single winner. However, following the passing of Arnaldo Pomodoro on June 22, 2025, and referencing prestigious precedents such as the Turner Prize 2019 and the Preis der Nationalgalerie 2024, the finalists expressed their wish to share the Prize ex aequo in memory of Pomodoro.
This request was unanimously accepted by the Jury and both Foundations, in full recognition of the symbolic significance of this decision. By ICA Milano.
Richie Nath was born twice: once in Yangon, and again in Paris. Since leaving Myanmar in the aftermath of the 2021 coup, he has come to understand what it means to both produce and undo himself. The displacement opened a distance from his mother, one he had not known before, though her presence continues to structure his sense of self.
As the emotional and hierarchical order between mother and son began to fracture, the possibility of self-recognition emerged. His first self-portrait Where Are You?, painted in 2023, does not resolve this rupture but marks its beginning. In this first solo exhibition in Paris, An Oyster Without a Pearl, the artist explores identity, migration, and his complex relationship with his mother through painting drawings and mis-en-scène.
