Exhibition “Portraits of Compassion: A Journey from War to Peace” to be held in Hanoi
American photo journalist Paul Davis will come to Hanoi to share his award-winning photos at a one-night exhibition “Portraits of Compassion: A Journey from War to Peace” tomorrow.
His photographic journey began in 1965 when he purchased his first camera at age 19 while serving in Vietnam in the U.S. Marine as a radio operator. Upon his return to Vietnam in 2003, he reconnected with his love for photography.
The photo display at Lane 12, 54A Dang Thai Mai Street near Hoang An Temple features compelling stories about miserable destinies, ironic situations and intriguing illuminations via his journey from rural America to Hanoi.
