14 + 1 - Thursday, French Cultural Centre
Hello,
Since September 2006, I have been teaching history, culture and photography
to Cambodian students twice a week at the gallery I manage in Phnom Penh,
the Popil PhotoGallery. While the class was designed to provide basic
knowledge and photographic techniques, the main goal was for the students to
practice what they learned during the classes and to develop an individual,
photographic project.
The result of our work together will be soon featured at the French Cultural
Center: 14 different photographic works on Cambodia by young Cambodian
people. Please join for the opening of that show this Thursday at 6.30pm at
the French Cultural Center.
This project would not have been possible without the donations and
contributions from many art lovers and supporters, both here in Phnom Penh
and outside of Cambodia. I especially would like to thank the Fuji SPK Photo
Shop on Monivong Boulevard, which has provided all film, development and
prints for the show. It is through their generosity and time that we are
very happy to present this exhibition.
PS: you may have noticed that there is another show opening the same
evening, same time, a Svay Ken paintings and objects exhibition at Java Arts
& Café Gallery. Dana Langlois and I both hope that you can go to these two
openings the same evening to appreciate on both venues (CCF and Java) some
sincere Cambodian artistic expression.
We hope to see you this Thursday at 6.30pm at the French Cultural Center.
Stéphane and all the students in the projects.
