SLU GALLERY EXHIBITS ART OF VIETNAM

CANTON -- "Reconsidering Vietnam" is the theme of the 
St. Lawrence University Festival of the Arts and the related 
exhibition in the Richard F. Brush Art Gallery which opens 
January 31.
	The exhibition continues in the Gallery through March 
10; the Festival will take place on campus February 21 through 
March 8.
	C. David Thomas, curator of the Gallery exhibition, said, 
"My goal in organizing this exhibition is to bring together four 
artists' work in order to challenge and expand the viewer's knowledge 
of Vietnam, the land and the people." Included are installations 
by Hanoi artist Tran Luong; photographs by New York artist An-My Lê; 
portraits and interviews of Amerasian children by Boston artist 
Hien Duc Tran; and portraits from Thomas' book on Ho Chi Minh.
	Thomas is a professor of studio art at Emmanuel College 
and director of the Indochina Arts Partnership.
	Luong will be in residence at the Gallery from February 14 
through 25, Monday-Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., to create a 
site-specific installation, meet with students and discuss his work 
with visitors.
