Registration link

From the organizer:

To stand beneath a glimmering night sky, to be in front of an endless sea of crashing waves, to see the breath-taking Northern Lights, the Aurora Borealis—plenty are the wonders that nature gives us. Amidst it all, you at once feel small in comparison the great beauties out there and you get the sense, as Rumi put it, that you’re shining “like the whole universe is yours.”

Parting ways with the solemn sun of vol. 21 “Solar eclipse”, SiaM invites you to continue our adventure together with a journey North, to immerse ourselves in the radiance of the Aurora Borealis. On this adventure, the harmonies of the violin, the oboe, and the piano, in the hands of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg and Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, will build a forest of pine around you, where the cold wind whistles and where polar bears dance.

Exhibition: Until Mar 12, 10 am – 09 pm

From VCCA:

Featuring nearly 100 classic works in digital versions of two great Surrealists Rene Magritte and Frida Kahlo.

Rene Magritte (Belgium, 1898-1967) and Frida Kahlo (Mexican, 1907-1954) can be seen as the two extremes of Surrealism and the negative. If Frida – who always paints his own reality, Rene paints everyone’s reality – with a twist somewhere. Magritte’s works, from murals, magazine covers, to classics, are all aimed at an audience. To interact with the audience, Magritte is interested in creating puzzles, unknowns, and visual tricks. He wanted to paint the impossible as a form of realistic expression, thus free from coincidences and coincidences, which was the opposite of contemporary Surrealist painters.

Tết Art – an annual event that we, along with painters and sculptors, always want to bring to the public every Spring.
