On the final day of the exhibition Phụ Lục, How Are You?, as the guest artists begin their performances, Phụ Lục simultaneously dismantles and packs up the artworks to return to Hanoi.

Artists:
Le Vu (Hanoi)
Nhi Le (Saigon)
Ly Le (Saigon)
Nguyen Dinh Phuong (Hanoi)
Duong Thanh Quang (Da Nang)
Nguyen Hoang Anh (Hoi An)

Curator: Vu Duc Toan

And So, Into the Garden

Just as the late afternoon sun refuses to fade,
Just as the garden is about to fall masterless,
Just as the old custodian has yet to sober up,
Just as chickens, turning night-blind, scramble for their roost,
Just as toads have yet to leap to the well’s lip,

And so, a half-dozen silhouettes walk into the garden, as if the place were deserted.

Beyond the support from Nguyễn Art Foundation’s support, the event receives financial contributions from independent patrons: Truong Cong Tung, Phan Thao Nguyen, Van Do, and Phụ Lục.
