According to Réhahn, the exhibition will open at 4.30p.m with a book signing session at 78 Le Duan Street in Da Nang on June 6. He also said 26 of his photos will be displayed. Entrance to the exhibition is free from 7.30am to 5.30pm through June 6 to 18.
The French photographer also launched his latest private art gallery at 26 Phan Boi Chau street in the ancient town of Hoi An in early January. In addition, he was inspired to do this project because he believe there are many layers to a person and that their years and their long life story enrich the lives of others.
Sharing in Facebook, he also said, it feels even more true here in Vietnam, where he find old women incredibly strong. They worked hard most of their life, but despite the hardships, they are not only very warming, kind and generous but also extremely funny, and cheeky as would young girls.
They say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” and as a photographer. So, he think that there is something that transcends the modern perceptions of what beauty is. He want to show you the deeper side of humanity, something that has ageless beauty. The museum hopes that the exhibition would lure tourists during busy summer holidays.
Réhahn, born on 4 May 1979 in Bayeux in Normandy, France, is a photographer based in Hoi An, Vietnam. He travelled over 35 countries and is particularly renowned for his portraits of Vietnam, Cuba and India. Known as the photographer that “captures emotions and people souls”. He has been working towards the recognition of the heritage of Vietnam’s 54 tribes since 2011.
On 1 January 2017, he opened the Precious Heritage Art Gallery Museum that showcases these ethnic groups whose traditions and heritage are dwindling.
