PRINCETON, N.J. -- Raphael Di Luzio, professor of art at the
University of Wyoming, will give a slide and video presentation on
Vietnam's contemporary arts at Princeton University on Tuesday,

Country, Not a War."

Di Luzio spent two months in Vietnam last summer documenting the
country's contemporary arts. His presentation, which will include
a brief overview of the history of culture and the arts of
Vietnam, will cover ceramics, painting and mosaic murals.

The event is sponsored by Princeton's International Center and co-
sponsored by the South East Asian Students Association and the
Council on Regional Studies. It is funded in part by the
International Center's Linsie and Hoshien Tchen Memorial Lecture
Fund.

Di Luzio's presentation will take place at 4:30 p.m. in Bowl 1,
Robertson Hall. It is free and open to the public.
