Hanoi-Mai Duy Minh – The Collection
Until August 18, 10 am – 06:30 pm,
Hanoi Studio Gallery
No. 23-25 Mac Dinh Chi Street, Ba Dinh District
From the organizer:
Hai Phong in the 2000s had mostly stayed the same compared to Hanoi at the time. I thought that if film crews needed a setting for the old, poor Hanoi of the subsidy era, with its quiet, deserted, moss-covered streets, makeshift markets at the alley entrances, and old industrial areas related to ferries and ports, they could find all the necessary material in Hai Phong.
Hanoi Studio Gallery proudly presents “Mai Duy Minh – The Collection”. The artworks introduced in this event come from the author’s collection and collectors, along with some sketches and drawings introduced to art lovers, for the first time.
