| “In a City" is the title of an exhibition about the capital city of Hanoi, which opened on May 15. |
 |
 Funded by the British Council in Vietnam, the exhibition features a book, a multi-media exhibition and an e-book version.
For
a three-month period from November 2008 to March 2009, six teams of
writers and photographers each selected a physical space or community
within Hanoi and set out - using words, photographs, video and sound –
to tell the everyday stories of the people they encountered.
“In a City” is a collection of some of their passions, problems, relationships and routines, vocations and obsessions.
Running
until May 21, the event is part of “Inclusive Cities” - a two-year
initiative within the British Council’s regional Creative Cities
project that celebrates and gives a voice to communities living in East
Asian cities, China, and the UK through performances, workshops and
joint initiatives. |
