Right now: Chin Vanchear, Say Vesna, Mao Sovit (above left) and (above right) Lem Lorn are exhibiting some really engaging paintings at the French Cultural Centre, from RUFA/PHARE art schools. (Why is it so few people check these exhibits out?) Don’t fear the French, you don’t have to speak, just walk in and take a look, the art is right inside the main hall. You’ll be impressed. Go on!
