Duc Minh Private Museum of Ho Chi Minh City
Vietnam - Hoi An - Hanoi - Ho Chi Minh City - Hue
Ho Chi Minh City goes by various names- The Pearl of the Orient, The Pearl of
the Far East, Saigon, The Paris of the East etc. But this 300 year old city has
more to offer than its mouthful of names. From ancient pagodas to imposing colonial
architecture to war and history museums and designer boutiques, this city has
something for everyone. The city's many museums are proof of the love for art
and culture that is common to the people of Ho Chi Minh City. Among its numerous
museums and art galleries is the Duc Minh Private Museum. This gallery-cum-museum
exhibits mainly artistic works of local artists or Vietnamese people.
The Duc Minh Art Gallery has been open four years and though it is new to the field the gallery has already built up a sizeable clientele. The interiors of this art gallery is air-conditioned and is thus a nice getaway from the heat and dust of Ho Chi Min City. The gallery has helpful English-speaking staff who can guide you about the artists and styles of Vietnamese art on offer. Artists exclusive to the gallery include the twins Le Duc Hai and Le Ngoc Thanh. The works of Hoai Huong and Vu Thang are also on display. Prices start at USD100 and go up to rather astronomic levels.
