<p><b>About Pham Quoc Hung</b></p>

<p>Pham Quoc Hung was born during 1966 in Hue, a city with a rich artistic history and once the capital of Vietnam Dynasty. He studied art at the Hue Fine Arts University where he graduated in 1992.

<p><b>About Artreach Seattle</b></p>

<p>Artreach is a non-profit arts organization that aims to increase demand for art among young professionals in King County by promoting approachable art. What is approachable art?</p>

<p><li> High quality original art that fits in the budget. High quality art doesn't always mean oil painting on large canvas. It can also mean a small study, a sketch of a future painting, or a photograph taken on vacation.<br />
<li> Art showcased in a way that helps viewers appreciate it. The story behind an art piece helps establish a personal connection between the viewer and the artist.<br />
<li> Art presented in a social party atmosphere that removes the barriers between the viewer and the art.<br />
<lli> Art that can be easily set up at home.<br />

         <title>La Rousse Celebrates Seattle Artist with Opening Party</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Art Opening at Belltown boutique features Pham Quoc Hung</p>

<p><b>July 26, 2006 (SEATTLE, WA)</b> - - <a href="http://www.la-rousse.com/art.html">La Rousse</a>, Belltown’s boutique for the style-conscious woman, is hosting an art opening on Thursday, August 10, 6 - 9 p.m. at 430 Virginia Street. <a href="http://www.phamquochung.com/">Pham Quoc Hung</a>, a Seattle artist, joins a distinguished group of Pacific Northwest artists who have exhibited their work at La Rousse since its opening 10 months ago.</p>

<p>The inspiration behind Hung’s art essentially comes once he starts working. “Different ideas,” said Hung, “come to me very suddenly. I try to paint as quickly as I can to capture the emotions in my heart and satisfy the happiness within my heart. Sometimes I feel that I have almost created what I dreamed, but in reality I’m only able to capture a small part of the beauty of the universe.”</p>

<p>Hung’s show at La Rousse consists of 10 oil on canvas paintings – fiery landscapes as well as vibrant blue cubist-inspired townscapes. All art is available for purchase including a selection of wallet-friendly wood block prints.</p>

<p>“The addition of local art helps create an artistic and community vibe,” says owner, Amanda Rosenthal. “La Rousse has the feel of a New York showroom with modern white walls and concrete floors, but is a place where people can interact and discuss what’s hot in fashion, art, music and lifestyle.”</p>

<p>La Rousse will celebrate the art of Pham Quoc Hung on Thursday, August 10, from 6 to 9 p.m. During the artist reception, guests can enjoy wine and hors d’oeuvres as well as a 10% discount off any purchase (excluding art).</p>

<p><b>About La Rousse</b><br />
La Rousse, in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood, brings an urban and classic edge to style-conscious women in the Pacific Northwest. Featuring up-and-coming designers from the East and West Coasts, La Rousse services the women who define the cutting edge in fashion and lifestyle. Located at 430 Virginia Street between Fourth and Fifth Avenues, La Rousse is open Monday through Saturday from 11a.m. to 7p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.<br />
