Réhahn

Réhahn Croquevielle, commonly known as Réhahn (born 1979 in Bayeux, Normandy, France), is a French photographer and art collector based in Hoi An, Vietnam. His work often focuses on themes such as memory, cultural heritage, and the documentation of traditional practices in countries including Vietnam, Cuba, Malaysia, and India.

In 2010, he began the ''Precious Heritage Project'', aimed at documenting Vietnam’s ethnic communities through photography and the collection of traditional clothing and cultural items. The project explores the effects of modernization on these communities and their customs.

On 1 January 2017, Réhahn opened the Precious Heritage Art Gallery Museum in Hoi An, which displays portraits, recorded stories, and traditional garments from ethnic groups officially recognized by the Vietnamese government.

As of 2020, he had documented all 54 officially recognized ethnic groups and has continued to research additional subgroups. Provided by Wikipedia
