EXHIBITIONS Hanoi- Exhibition “Breeding Season” by Thai Nhat Minh
Until Jul 13,
Manzi Art Space, 14 Phan Huy Ich Street
Part of a series of experimental works by sculptor Thai Nhat Minh.
Inspired by the breeding season, during which living creatures grow enlivened, elated, enraptured, when all crave unification, procreation and seek an escape from sorrow and solitude, this series by Thai Nhat Minh aspires to portray the connection between sculpture and abstract notions of landscape, time, and mentality. An intimate relationship – seemingly extraneous yet consistent between natural connections and those in contemporary life – one that remains clouded in everyone’s consciousness.
Hanoi-Exhibition “Through the Windows of Life”
Until Jul 15, 9.30 am – 7 pm
Chula, 43 Nhat Chieu Street (near West Lake)
A photography exhibition from the Humans of Hanoi project and the first of many to come. Consisting of more than 1000 pictures, each telling a story of a person, the intent of the exhibition is to depict the mosaic of life in the city, of people of all ages and backgrounds. We want to break down the social barriers and help people, especially the youths, to build a sense of acceptance, understanding and sympathy for other people.
Free entry.
Hanoi-Exhibition “Letting Go”
Opening: Jul 3, 6.30 pm
Exhibition: Jul 3 – 9
Vietnam Fine Arts Museum
The first solo exhibition by artist Le Huu Hieu, featuring 18 oil-on-canvas paintings in medium size; there are also different experimentations with acrylic, using gold and silver on canvas.
With the language of surrealist art mixing with expressionist, the artist doesn’t just paint his own mental state but also expresses the consciousness of a certain class. This class is considered to be “The Youth of their times“. There is fear and amazement in front of the pressure of time and work.
