Creativity in Contemporary Art – Saigon Creative's September event

Saigon Creative welcomes Cristina Nualart as our speaker for September.

Topic is: Creativity in Contemporary Art

Looking at different artworks shown primarily in Europe in recent years, this talk aims to generate ideas about the ways in which artists conceive and develop their ideas. Bringing to Vietnam some images not seen in the country to date, the focus will be on original ideas in the field of contemporary art. This talk does not aim to be a lecture on art history and theory, but rather a celebration of fun, good ideas and an opportunity for cultural exchange.

Cristina Nualart graduated in the UK in Art and Aesthetics, and has a Masters in Art and the Creative Economy. She lives in HCMC, where she has lectured on Visual Language and Practice and Theory of Creativity at RMIT university Vietnam, and works as a creative consultant. She is currently continuing her art practice creating paintings, digital works and films inspired by the fast moving pace of Saigon.

Our August Speaker: Edge Pamute

With twenty years extensive experience in the media and entertainment business from TV channels, marketing, events, and in Asia and Europe, we couldn't think of a better person to talk about how creativity impacts and shapes pop culture.

As a pioneer and co-founder of MYX Music channel in the Philippines, YanTV here in Vietnam, Fashion TV in Indochina, having set-up odyssey music online and developed yeuamnhac.vn, a digital music network with over 1M subscribers, Edge is at the epi-center of Vietnam's exploding cultural zeitgeist.  

Add to this, his own personal interest as an accomplished DJ.  Edge is considered one of the pioneers of the dance and eclectic music scene in Asia and driving the popular dOSe series here in Vietnam.  He has taken his eclectic brew worldwide through his mixed compilations and performances as a DJ in various clubs around Europe, U.S., Asia and Australia. Edge has performed in world-renowned venues such as Batofar, The End, The Palais, End Up, Funky Chicken, Red Room, Turnmills, 333, nu-spirit and other off-the-wall venues with internationally acclaimed music artists including dance music pioneers Derick May, Derick Carter and Masters at Work; progressive artists from Jazzanova, Norman Jay, Telepopmusik, Bugz in the Attic, N’dea Davenport, Shortkut, Apollo, Aphrodite and Q-Bert to the world’s leading dancefloor maestros such as Roger Sanchez, Richie Hawtin, Josh Wink, Swayzak, Charles Schilling and Marques Wyatt to name a few.
