Lê Thiên-Bảo divides her time between Ho Chi Minh City and Paris. Since 2010, her curatorial practice has been exploring the best ways to promote contemporary art in Southeast Asia by raising awareness and connecting artists and their community. After curating the first contemporary art centre in Vietnam (The Factory) from 2016 to 2019, she structured 'Nổ Cái Bùm', an artist-run art festival in 2020 and 2022. In France, she commissioned several exhibitions, notably with A2Z Art Gallery and POUSH. In 2023, she co-founded BAQ Gallery in Paris with the aim of creating a dialogue between Southeast Asian and European art practices.
Bảo is one of the 40 under 40 most influential art leaders in the Asia-Pacific region, selected by Apollo Art Magazine (London) in 2022.
