Hanoi-Exhibition “Light – Dark” by Barbara Klemm

Introducing calligraphic artworks by Christian Hadengue and paintings by Le Thua Tien, with music composed by Mark Lockett playing in the background, accompanied by Hubert Haddad’s poems.
The exhibition is a meeting between artists who have adopted a language naturally, ‘out of step’ with their cultural backgrounds (Western and Asian).
Hanoi-Exhibition: “The Big Book Larousse of Space”
Exhibition of images from the book “Le très grand livre de l’espace” (The big book Larousse of Space) – a great book to discover all the wonders of the universe, with six major thematic sections divided into sub-themes (satellites, galaxies, Ariane 5…), and ending with a large, beautiful double-page. The book also contains a great diversity of information, which is serious, anecdotal, unusual, humorous… but always extraordinary, helping children to approach the mysteries of space from different angles.
HCMC-Photo Media Exhibition “FoMO – Fear of Missing Out”
Australian photo-media artist, Darren Tynan, documents video compression errors using broadcasts from free-to-air Australian television channels.

A project spanning two years, FoMO is a world punctuated by randomness, disintegration and transmutation.
