Acoustic Show with Indonesian grunge rocker Gede Robi
Thu 09 Jul 2015, 8 pm
ATK
73a Mai Hac De, Hanoi
Grunge rocker Gede Robi Supriyanto ventures to Vietnam for the first time. Lead guitarist and vocalist with top indie Indonesian band NAVICULA now stops off in Hanoi in his Vietnam tour!
Robi is traveling with Joe Cummings of Love Bone and Daniel Eiland, funk bassist. His aim is to share his grunge rock music whilst meeting and collaborating with local musicians.
“The collaboration between great musicians becomes a conversation that takes place between the artist and the audience. The energy goes both ways and it is in this space – created by sound – that the unraveling of boundaries takes place.”
This is the intention of the tour – to take some music, some musicians and ideas, and unravel some magic. The ultimate goal is to have a great deal of fun… Because, “If it is not fun, it is not rock and roll.”
Tickets: 50,000 VND at door

Lecture & Talk: “Dolls, Dreams, and Drives: Sexual Subjectivity in the Films of Kim Kyung-Mook”
Thu 09 Jul 2015, 7 pm
Nha San Collective
2nd floor, 24 Ly Quoc Su, Hanoi
Queer Forever and Nhà Sàn Collective are excited to invite you to a lecture and talk with Prof. Earl Jackson, Jr.:
“Dolls, Dreams, and Drives:
Sexual Subjectivity in the Films of Kim Kyung-Mook.”
Earl Jackson, Jr.
National Chiao Tung University
Trans-Asian Screen Cultures Institute
Any description of the films of Kim Kyung-Mook must be immediately qualified. His films emanate from an unapologetically “gay” perspective, yet their significance extends beyond an identity politics. One of recurrent motifs in his films involve the attempt of a young gay man to find sexual and emotional fulfillment from an older married man only partially available. Yet the films are neither a lament nor a victimology. Instead, these situations contribute to a more extensive understanding of a sexual scenario as a structural disequilibrium. Furthermore, desire is not an urge to be quelled either by physiological satisfaction or the closure of a psychological narrative; instead, desire remains an open question – destabilizing in its constitutive effects and affects.
This paper will examine Kim’s films to draw out the inscription of sexual subjectivity and the self-constitution of the subject as object of the other’s desire. Although the primary focus is on male-male sexuality outside of an identity politics, the struggles for recognition within a given pairing as well as within a subject’s self-understanding illustrate viscerally that sexuality itself is inherently political – here in its adjudication of submission, dominance, accommodation and resistance.
Round-table Discussion: “Window – A strange Look on the Familiar Hanoi” by Ta Huy Long
Wed 08 Jul 2015, 6 pm
L’Espace
24 Tràng Tiền, Hà Nội
You are invited to the round-table discussion entitled: “Window – A strange Look on the Familiar Hanoi”, with the participation of Ta Huy Long, illustrator and author of the book, and Nguyen Hoang Dieu Thuy, publisher.
“Window”, the latest work of Ta Huy Long – one of the leading comic illustrators in Viet Nam – tells the story of Hanoi some decades ago when Trang Tien Miscellaneous Goods Store was still open, electric trains still tinkled on the streets, and bicycle was the main transportation of Hanoians. The mischievous, ambiguous paintings which bear the metaphor of re-birth and life transformation, flashing by as fast as a dream in their busy lives will take the audience to a familiar, yet strange Hanoi as it was a few decades ago.

Solo Sculpture Exhibition “Invisible Movements” by Khong Do Tuyen
Opening: Fri 03 Jul 2015, 5.30 pm
Artist talk: Sun 05 Jul 2015, 3 pm
Exhibition: 03 – 10 Jul 2015
Vietnam Fine Arts Museum
66 Nguyen Thai Hoc St., Hanoi
To people who concern about contemporary sculpture in Vietnam, Khong Do Tuyen is a familiar name. His career starts very early in group exhibitions, workshops, local and international camps. It can be said that Tuyen is one of the mature sculptors of his generation.
Khong Do Tuyen uses several materials professionally, in which metal has been most frequently used, and steel seems to be the only type of metal able to express and fulfill his creative need. Khong Do Tuyen breathes life into steel.
Khong Do Tuyen made careful and serious decision about organizing the first solo sculpture exhibition. It’s hard to think of any other title that is more suitable than “Invisible Movements” for his “steel game” this time. A raging movement is hidden under the shapes, struggle, and pain of the heavy and cold steel…
Khong Do Tuyen also participated in the experimental contemporary sculpture project “NEW FORM” (2012-2014) and had his works exhibited in both phase 1 and phase 2 of the project.
