River of Destiny: The Life and Work of Binh Pho
Through March 4, 2007

The life story of contemporary sculptor Binh Pho is inextricably interwoven into the fabric of his work. Born in Vietnam, he was imprisoned by the Viet Cong and, after several failed attempts, escaped from his native country under heart-wrenching conditions. He later immigrated to this country, learned wood turning techniques and has quickly become one of the leading figures in the field of contemporary wood sculpture. River of Destiny: The Life and Work of Binh Pho collectively presents Pho’s life story as told through his exquisite artwork.
