Hanoi- Dance Performance “The Burrow” (Der Bau)
Youth Theatre, 11 Ngo Thi Nham street, Hai Ba Trung district
Come to enjoy the intoxicating dance work “The Burrow” (Der Bau), created by Berlin-based choreographer Isabelle Schad and French visual artist Laurent Goldring.
“The Burrow” is part of a series of influential art collaborations by dancer and choreographer Isabelle Schad and visual artist Laurent Goldring. In their work, Schad and Goldring employ a concept of “intensifier” to make physical processes visible. Like an artificial limb, an outer layer encloses the body, serving as transition between the inner and the outer world.
Tickets: VND 50,000
Hanoi- Contemporary Dance “Distorsions Urbaines”
Institut Français de Hanoi – L’Espace, 24 Trang Tien street, Hoan Kiem district

The dancers and musicians in “Distorsions Urbaines” will “cohabit” in transparent inflatables bubbles – a representation of the tumors of modern cities where humans are more and more imprisoned day by day.

EXHIBITION
Hanoi- Exhibition “Beyond the Hills” by Le Hoang Bich Phuong
A solo exhibition by Saigon-based visual artist Le Hoang Bich Phuong, one of the most prominent emerging artists in Vietnam.
Featuring her new series of delicate silk paintings and a minimalist installation, dealing with the question about concepts of self consciousness, time and personal space.
‘Beyond the Hills’ is a part of Phuong’s visual diary which reflects her recent experience of loss, of life and death, it therefore, is a deeply personal work both in subject and production by an artist ready to listen to her intuition.
Hanoi- Exhibition “Vietnam in Cyanotype: Batch 1” by Julie Vola
Ke Quan, 81b Xuan Dieu Street, Tay Ho districtA selection of some of Julie Vola’s favorite portraits of Vietnam and its people. They come from more than a half-decade exploring Vietnam through the lens of her camera, on assignment, as a traveller and as a resident of the country.
Born in the South of France in 1983, Julie Vola is currently working as the Photo editor for Word Vietnam. She arrived in Hanoi 7 years ago in search of her own family’s past, after inheriting her grandfather’s personal photographs from his life in Hanoi.
Hanoi- Exhibition “Fly in the Skies” by Mai Dai Luu
A combination of music and painting, which promises to bring a space filled with emotions so that audiences can fully appreciate the artworks on display.
The childlike, naive-looking works of artist Mai Dai Luu will be accompanied by remixed versions of children’s songs by the HUB band, which will bring audiences back to their innocence, yet mischievous childhood and closer to the world of children.
HCMC- Solo Exhibition “Persona” by Tuyp Tran
Dia Projects, Ground Floor, Saigon Domaine, 1057 Bình Quoi Ward 28, Binh Thanh District,
In “Persona”, Tuyp zooms out a little and raises many questions which are made visible through an exploration of religious, political and scientific narratives. Where do we get our personalities from? How do we navigate the gulf between what we think we are and how we are perceived? To what extent are we in control of this process?
HCMC- A Solo Exhibition by Ly Hoang Ly
The Factory Contemporary Arts Centre, 15 Nguyen U Di, Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City
Ly Hoang Ly’s first solo exhibition, and most the comprehensive presentation of her work to date, as part of her on-going project ‘0395A.ĐC’. This multimedia, collaged body of work will showcase the artist’s ongoing inquiry into the epic story and continuous struggle of human (im)migration, whilst highlighting the contested nature of the memorisation, documentation and circulation of history.
Hanoi-Exhibition introduces Indian artist
A solo exhibition by Indian artist Ruchika Wason Singh.
Featuring nearly 20 artworks made around 2013 on her new approach on accommodation and migration - one of the biggest problems in the world today.
Instead of portraying scenes where people sit in crowded places in buildings, Singh takes a look inside each person living in metropolitan areas.
HCMC-Exhibition “Muted Conversations” by Dat Vu
The Factory Contemporary Arts Centre, 15 Nguyen U Di, Thao Dien, District 2,
‘Muted Conversations’ is an ongoing photography project by Dat Vu that explores the spirituality and superstitions surrounding rituals in modern Vietnam. His photographic series includes both staged and candid images taken during his extensive travels across the country.
