Workshops, film screenings, contemporary art performances and concerts in Hanoi, Hue and Ho Chi Minh City from Nov. 8-Dec. 10 will make Open Academy 2010 different from other German art exchange programmes in Vietnam.
At a press briefing on Nov. 8 in Hanoi, German artist Veronika Radulovic, who has a strong attachment to Vietnam, said the project will gather 10 key German artists who have developed major initiatives in the contemporary arts and have close relations with Vietnamese contemporary artists.
Sound, light and stage and space installation and arrangement will be hot topics at workshops, she said.
The project, jointly held by Goethe Institute in Hanoi and Vietnamese colleges and art centres, will also benefit the public, media artist Maria Vedder said.
The German partner may soon repeat the project by creating favourable conditions for Vietnamese artists to perform in Germany.
Open Academy 2010, funded by the state of Berlin, is part of “Year of Germany in Vietnam 2010”, which marks the 35 th anniversary of Vietnam-Germany diplomatic ties./.
