HCMC-Spanish & Italian Pop Opera Night
Jan 6, 8 pm,
Opera House, 07 Cong Truong Lam Son, District 1
From the organizer:
The New Year is almost upon us and there is no better way to celebrate its arrival than with music. But what kind? While there are several songs associated with the holiday, unlike Christmas, there isn’t an entire genre of music dedicated to New Years. This presents the Ho Chi Minh City Ballet and Orchestra (HBSO) with a great opportunity to simultaneously present timeless favorites to audiences while introducing others to a thrilling genre of music: Spanish and Italian Pop Opera

From the organizer:
The first exhibition of its kind in Da Nang, introducing 35 artworks by 14 artists representing the professors and alumni of l’École des Beaux-Arts de l’Indochine (1924-1945) as we celebrate the school’s centennial anniversary. Inspired by a classic line in The Tale of Kieu, the curatorial concept revolves around two narratives in parallel: the image of the Vietnamese woman and the portrayal of the Indochine landscape, under the artistic lexicon blending East and West.
Hanoi-Exhibition “To each their own sky”
Until Jan 28, 2024, 09 am – 08 pm, Tues – Sun
Mo Art Space, Floor B3, 136 Hang Trong Street, Hoan Kiem District.
From the organizer:
A solo exhibition by artist Nguyen Hoa.
Trained in Sculpture, Nguyen Hoa embraced painting as an additional medium for expressing his artistic spirit—a medium that serves as both a reflection upon and resistance to time. Each of his compositions, meticulously crafted and deliberately scarce, forms part of a series of reflections, sometimes comprising no more than three pieces.
Throughout the series, ancient architectural details act as a frame—a metaphor laden with poignancy and conflict, unraveling scenes, rituals, routines, and rules not only of history and heritage but also of the very fabric of existence that any artist residing and working in the ancient capital of Hue inevitably carries along.”

From the organizer:
After the excursion for 3 young artists to the natural sceneries of traditional French architecture in Da Lat “Art Trail #01 – Travelling & Open Studio”, Lân Tinh Foundation, along with Annam Gallery and Ana Mandara Villas Dalat Resort & Spa, proudly introduces a new group show titled “Fields of Optics | Chapter I: Biocenosis” showcasing 35 works from 3 artists Phan Thị Thanh Nhã, Phạm Xeen and Hà My. All 3 artists are under the curatorial patronization from Lân Tinh Foundation, and are being represented by Annam Gallery.
“Biocenosis” is the first chapter from the series Fields of Optics, a project initiated by Lân Tinh Foundation. Field of optics is the entire area that can be seen when the eyes are focused on a single fixed point. Each individual possesses a particular visual field and colour spectrum, and what each person sees is characteristic and unique, even when they are observing the same object. It is this attribute that diversified in each artist’s creations.
