Tran co-founded a collective known as Gang of Five (1983-1996) who actively exhibited in alternative spaces and institutions, rejecting the prevalent social realism favored by the state of Vietnam. In 1998, Tran co-founded Nha San Studio, the country’s first artist-led, experimental art space and curated most of its exhibitions in the initial four years. Tran was also a founding director of the Hanoi Contemporary Art Centre in 2000 but resigned in 2003 in protest of government corruption. In 2020, he co-founded the APD Center, a center focused on supporting the overlapping development between contemporary art and social development.

As a curator, Tran has mounted exhibitions in venues throughout Vietnam and internationally, most notably as a part of the curatorial team of the 2013 Singapore Biennial. Tran also organized and curated the Mao Khe Coal Mine Project, a series of interactive sessions, workshops, and performances with miners in rural areas, and On the Bank of Red River, a two-week practice and an interactive performance staged in a disadvantaged area of Hanoi.
