Holiday service guide: what`s open and when in Hanoi this weekend. Here are the ones we recommend.
Contemporary Dance “At the Gates of Oblivion”
You are invited to the contemporary dance performance “Aux Portes de l’oubli” (At the Gates of Oblivion) by choreographer Sébastien Ly within the framework of Krossing Over Festival 2019.
“At the Gates of Oblivion” is a journey into our memories, presented by the French choreographer of Vietnamese origin – Sébastien Ly. Accompanied by two French and two Vietnamese dancers, Sébastien Ly will tell us the story of the connection between us and our ancestors. Films, dances and words, including stories from the audience, create a unique, interactive show where our tales are no longer our own.
Time: Saturday April 20 at 8:00 pm
Venue: L’Espace, 24 Trang Tien, Hanoi
Concert with LaJazzO
The State Youth Jazz Orchestra of Baden-Württemberg (LaJazzO) is the talent school for the next generation of jazz musicians. Many young German jazz musicians could use this ensemble as a springboard for their musical careers.
Twice a year, during school holidays, the young musicians meet for one-week work phases, trained by their bandleaders Rainer Tempel and Klaus Graf and other renowned lecturers. The repertoire ranges from contemporary interpretations of traditional pieces to standards to the composer’s own compositions and arrangements. Following this year’s spring rehearsals, La JazzO will travel to Hanoi and Hue to perform.
Time: Saturday and Sunday April 20 and 21 at 8:00 pm
Venue: Ly Thai To Monument, Pedestrian zone at the Hoan Kiem lake, Hanoi
Exhibition “PURE GOLD – Upcycled! Upgraded!”
Heritage Space is proud to present PURE GOLD – Upcycled! Upgraded! – an exhibition by ifa (Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations, Stuttgart, Germany) in cooperation with the Goethe-Institut Hanoi.
Bulky trash, waste, cheap materials: pure gold! At least in the eyes of many active designers. “PURE GOLD – Upcycled! Upgraded!” explores the subject of rubbish and presents approaches to using trash to create valuable products.
Global industrialization and ever greater levels of consumption make upcycling an urgent matter, and ifa is therefore addressing this issue in a design exhibition, a platform, workshops and conferences. The cornerstones of this project are ethics, responsibility, internationalisation and co-creation. The PURE GOLD exhibition consists of two complementary parts: the physical and material exhibition and the virtual platform as a space for dialogue, discussion and the storage of knowledge.
The materials used in the presented examples are nearly all easily available anywhere and more or less “free” – and yet they are often seen as trash with little value. The same is true for the techniques used to rework them, the artisanal knowhow that in many cases is based on traditional methods and bears the stain of the backward. The aim of our exhibition is to disarm all the bad names that reuse has, and to achieve a new notion of raw materials and thus also a new appreciation of these products.
Time: Saturday and Sunday April 20 – 21 from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm
Venue: Heritage Space, 1st Floor, Dolphin Plaza, 6 Nguyen Hoang / 28 Tran Binh, My Dinh 2, Hanoi
