After 15 year facing the wall, meditating in the world of black and white, Pham Manh Hien found and threw himself into the grey domain, the intermediate zone between black and white.

Exhibition “Mind, Flesh, Matter” Opening: Tue 13 May, 6 pm Artist talk: Thu 15 May, 6.30 pm Exhibition: 13 May – 07 Aug 2014 Sàn Art 3 Mê Linh, District Bình Thạnh, HCMC Gallery hours: Tue to Sat: 10.30 am – 6.30 pm ‘Mind, Flesh, Matter’ by Le Phi Long, Lai Thi Dieu Ha and Nguyen Van Du, the closing exhibition of ‘San Art Laboratory: Session 4’. The relationship between mind, body and the physical environment has been a constant topic inside the studios of Le Phi Long, Lai Thi Dieu Ha and Nguyen Van Du over the last near 6 months. Nguyen Van Du found himself transporting back to the studios pounds of fresh beef from a local abattoir, that would be cooked and served with his local flair and then the discussion around the table of artists would turn towards the question of violence in his work. His large-scale canvases reveal a controlled horror in slaughter, thick with gestures of oil in red and pink as if his brush is a knife of destruction. For Le Phi Long, the exploitation of the land and the upheaving of ancestral communities for socio-economic progress are of particular concern. Long spent much time during his residency with the remaining families who struggle to eke out a living in Can Gio, a UNESCO natural reserve. Working with sculpture, photography, performance and drawing, his art subtly refers to the trauma of industrializing societies where systems of finance govern supreme with irreversible social and natural effects. Understanding the occurrence and effects of trauma is also of key focus in the art of Lai Thi Dieu Ha, though here her questions are anchored in the intangible world of psychology. Working with industry professionals and their patients, Dieu Ha questions whether such suffering is determined by human gene or social circumstance, utilizing modes of theatre, prop and the dramatization of the self that are inherent methods of psychodrama therapy. Artist talk Le Phi Long, Lai Thi Dieu Ha and Nguyen Van Du are three artists from three very different backgrounds and perspectives when it comes to art-making. Come and hear the trials and tribulations of experimentation with material and the complexities of working with others in their desire to explore ideas behind ‘Mind, Flesh, Matter’!

The idea is based on the concept of immigrant and contemporary lifestyle. New fresh experience is a strong incentive which brings up the awareness and consciousness of our true self under the cover of our root culture. It reveals our substance of perspective of life. These situations also give the artists an opportunity to rethink and redesign their work (or even themselves). The process starts with an unfinished artwork which travels along with an artist from his hometown to an exhibit space in a different place. During the time the artist is required to absorb, learn and reinterpret the new environment and allow it to influence his work.

About films In the mood for love (2000) IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE is a 2000 The film’s original Chinese title, meaning “the age of blossoms” or “the flowery years” – Chinese metaphor for the fleeting time of youth, beauty and love – derives from a song of the same name by Zhou Xuan from a 1946 film.

A tale about The artwork revolves around nighttime, the eternal backdrop of mankind, a universal theme experienced and decrypted by photographer Paolo Belletti and writer Giulia Cavaliere based on the different bonds and relationships that these artists have forged with the two Italian cities. Through the darkness of night, the project unveils the surprising hidden life of empty urban spaces, paving the way for a new aesthetic and cognitive experience for the viewer and, possibly, for a new relationship with the city itself. Giulia Cavaliere writes: “The night in cities emptied of people consists of enormous beams of light that cleave the darkness, corners of unexpected epiphanies, spatial-temporal expanses of tarmac, the unexpected expression, seen for the first time, on the face of a statue that never smiles during the day.” Paolo Belletti is a freelance photographer. He works for Italian magazines like Il Corriere della Sera, L’Espresso, Io_Donna, Living, Wu Magazine. His projects have been exhibited Giulia Cavaliere studied literature focusing on the history of cinema, theater and media languages. She has published two short stories.
