Workshop Dialogue and improvisation
The workshop offered an opportunity for three groups of visual artists from Hanoi , Hue and Saigon to exchange creative experiences. It was organised in the SOC building, 3A Ton Duc Thang street , Ho Chi Minh City . This is the first inter-regional contemporary art workshop, aiming at erasing distances and regional isolation existing in the present contemporary art landscape in Vietnam . Isolation and self-isolation have led to a loss of core characteristics of artist’s creative process like sincerity, self-confidence and wildness. The workshop was an artistic interaction opening up the creation.
