The Goethe Institut invites you to the opening of the photo exhibition we will have been young on this Thursday, 14th November at 6:30pm at Deutsches Haus, 33 Le Duan Boulevard (2nd Floor).

The group exhibition we will have been young shows twelve young photographic positions from eight countries in Southeast Asia that deal with questions of youth, identity and the ambivalence of the future. As visual photo essays, they illuminate social phenomena in the context of economic progress and globalization in the photographers‘ home countries and also arouse awareness of longings and injustices within these realities.

The photo series were created during a Photography Masterclass 2016/17 in Penang, Malaysia under the direction of Jörg Brüggemann and Tobias Kruse of OSTKREUZ – Agentur der Fotografen. Initiative for the exhibition was given by the Goethe-Institute Malaysia. After stops in Jakarta, Singapore, Manila, Kuala Lumpur, Hanoi and Germany among others, we will have been young can now be seen for the first time in Ho Chi Minh City.

Mr. Linh Pham, the participating photographer from Vietnam, will be present on the opening day and offers a guided tour through the exhibition.

For the opening: Please confirm your participation until Wednesday 13th November 12 noon to Ms. Lan Nguyen: Lan.NguyenThiPhuong@goethe.de
