Founded in 2000 by Quynh Pham and Robert Cianchi with a dedicated exhibition space opening in December 2003, Galerie Quynh is a hybrid contemporary art gallery in Ho Chi Minh City that serves and responds to its community through public and education programs. The gallery collaborates with artists, curators and cultural organizations locally and internationally to foster dialogue among diverse creative voices. In 2014, the gallery founded the not-for-profit educational initiative Sao La. Sao La has since evolved into an independent artist collective based in Dalat and spearheaded by artists Nguyen Kim To Lan and Nguyen Duc Dat.
