-
13–14 April 2024
Nguyễn Art Foundation proudly co-sponsors No Cai Bum, a traveling contemporary art week curated by artists in Vietnam. In 2024, No Cai Bum returns with the theme Collectivity-in-(act)ion, co-organized by A sông, MORUA and Symbioses in Da Nang & Hoi An. This year’s program is supported by Goethe-Institut Ho Chi Minh City, Dogma Collection, Nguyễn Art Foundation, Lem Di Di, Symbioses, numerous crowdfunding contributors, as well as artists, collectives and other local partners from 22–28 August 2024.
From No Cai Bum:
Returning for its third season under the title Collectivity-in-(act)ion, No Cai Bum reflects on the festival’s legacy, its continuity and unique collective spirit – an aspect rarely explored in Vietnam’s art scene. The art week also serves as an important meeting point for artists from various collectives and generations to come together and collaborate.

The festival features more than 100 artists and art collectives from Vietnam. With more than 20 events, the program spans exhibitions, installations, film screenings, experimental dance and theater, performances of traditional and contemporary music, workshops, talks, Hip Hop Battle and art tours. A particular emphasis is placed on showcasing artists from the Central region.
