saigon's week of art

Apparently there is a whole week of art events going on now. I missed one at the beginning, but managed to catch another one of the events today. You're away for 2 months and no one sends you mail anymore! Sheesh....

Anyways, back to ART. Today I attended "Future, Tuong Lai" , the opening exhibition of a new gallery called San Art, an independent artist space run by Dinh Q. Le, known for his woven image tapestries.

Its a great space for local artists to show their work. What's also great is that they have a reading room where you can browse through art books and magazines. Its a small library right now, so will need donations to grow. Anyone interested in donating? Yay for more BOOKS !!!!

Another art event begins tomorrow, "Le Mois de L'image" ( A month of images ), from Oct. 4 - Oct. 20. Participating Venues include the Musee des Beaux-Arts de HCMC, Galerie Quynh, Idecaf, and the Association des Photographers.

This will be a busy week :)
