Cultural art series. Private art gallery tour and discussion (Thanh Uy art) FULL

THIS GALLERY TOUR IS NOW FULL. PLEASE RSVP FOR THE WAITING LIST.  THANKS

We are delighted to invite  a small group of FVH members to visit a hidden art gallery which is very unassuming  in the Cầu Diễn area of Hanoi.

The owner is a private art collector, Duc, and his gallery is the culmination of 10 passionate years amassing a wonderful collection of original artwork  prints.  Spread over 5 floors, each room is dedicated to a particular genre of print art. From Hàng Trống and Đông Hồ  traditional folk paintings to propaganda art posters, modern day mono prints and woodcuts …. beautifully curated and lit, in a warm cozy space.

We don’t want to post lots of photos in order to keep it a surprise as entering each room is like stepping into an aladdin’s cave.   Duc and his assistant Vy will  explain about  the different types of print art on display (traditional and modern), the techniques used, some of the artists whose work is featured,  some of the stories behind the works,  how the collection  was put together and a lot more discussion …..

The tour starts 9.30am, please meet at 9.15am ground floor gallery cafe with courtyard and grab a coffee.  We are allocating 3 hrs as there is a lot to see and talk about but of course feel free to leave at anytime

200,000 VND pp, drinks bought the cafe are  an additional personal cost

10-15 pax

please RSVP to stella@fvheritage.org
