About 1961

We are an ARTIST RETREAT & CREATIVE SPACE, where one can stay and immerse into a world of artists, poets, musicians and writers. Not only do we allow guests indulge in the artists’ worlds, we also encourage them to take part in the process of the creation of the room as a living art space.

WE ARE A HOME FOR ARTISTS, ART ENTHUSIASTS and TRAVELERS SEEKING CREATIVE NOURISHMENT. If that's you, then come and stay with us.

1961 presents the opening of a new exhibition by Chhai Kakada called Embody, featuring new works on pen & ink and graphite exploring the sensual forms of Khmer men. Kakada is a graduate of the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh and is currently an educator in Banteay Meanchey province in northwestern Cambodia. The exhibition will be at the Pop Gallery of 1961, but as there are some works present from the collection that might be considered "too provocative" for some viewers, we will designate a private room at the gallery for further viewing.
