Photo Exhibition “Hanoi – Spirit of Place”

Exhibition: 19 – 26 Oct 2013, 8 am – 5 pm
Gallery 29 Hang Bai, Hanoi

From the organizer:

“Hanoi – Spirit of Place” will present a rare glimpse of Hanoi and its surroundings in the early 1980s.

It features photographs from a unique archive of some 1700 black and white images taken by John Ramsden while he was working at the British Embassy from 1980-83.

The exhibition has been organised by Vietpro, a group of young Vietnamese professionals working in the UK. The design and content is the work of KREU, a similar group of young Vietnamese working in the creative industries. Leading Vietnamese historians and others have kindly helped and advised, making this a truly collaborative project.
