Good news for art lovers: a professional art gallery is opening in
the heart of Hanoi. Viet Fine Arts Gallery is equiped with a special
light system offering the best-angled lighting on paintings, a
warehouse storing paintings in ideal temperature and humidity
conditions, and area for framing paintings and small rooms featuring
an art library and conference centre. Four floors covering 750sqm
will be devoted to contemporary arts.
The gallery staff, who speak
English, French and Japanese, are also experts in the art world.
Viet Fine Arts plans to hold exhibitions around every two months.
