'Wanderlust' photo exhibition opens in HCM City
VOV.VN - A photo exhibition running with the theme of 'Wanderlust' is currently displaying pieces from German photographer Thomas Hoepker who won the Leica Hall of Fame Award at Deutsches Haus in Ho Chi Minh City.
Hoepker was born in 1936 in Munich and initially began taking pictures when he was 16. Since then has worked as a photojournalist, a cameraman for German television, and made several documentary films.
For decades he used his Leica M camera to capture the world famous photos, most notably documenting the destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
The event has been jointly organized by the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany in Ho Chi Minh City, the Goethe Institute, and Deutsches Haus Ho Chi Minh City.
The exhibition opens to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day and will last through to April 19.
