Galerie Quynh
Galerie Quynh is a commercial art gallery of contemporary art located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Galerie Quynh is considered to be Ho Chi Minh City's "main commercial space"[1] and a "leading contemporary commercial venue."[2] Founded by Quynh Pham and Robert Cianchi in 2000 as an online resource of Vietnamese art, the gallery has since evolved into a physical site that "presents some of Vietnam's most inspiring and rigorous practitioners."[2] The gallery mounts a new exhibition that varies from solo retrospectives to themed group shows every one or two months. In December of 2009, the gallery had an exhibition of works by Bruce Yonemoto, a Los-Angeles based Japanese-American artist, that further solidified its position in the international art world.[3]
In May 2014, the gallery founded the not-for-profit educational initiative Sao La directed by artists Tung Mai and Nguyen Kim To Lan.[4] Sao La has since evolved into an independent artist collective spearheaded by To Lan and Dalat-based artist Nguyen Duc Dat.
