Hanoi- Exhibition “Land of Lost Wanderers” by Nguyen The Hung


Hanoi Studio Gallery, 13 Trang Tien Street, Hoan Kiem district

Small details like pairs of hands, longing eyes and vivid lips, play hide and seek in Hung’s 24 arts works, leaving people to wonder whether what they see is true or not.

Nguyen The Hung went out of his artistic vision’s comfort zone to play around with materials such as gold, silver, Son paint, water colour and Do paper (both Do paper and Son paint are unique traditional Vietnamese material).


Hanoi-Exhibition “Parallel Worlds of ‘Yin’”

VICAS Art Studio

32 Hao Nam Street, Dong Da District,

The exhibition features works by two Vietnamese artists Le Thi Minh Tam and Nguyen Manh Hung.

Two artists, two different genders, two ages, two different artistic styles, two different journeys of creating artwork… but their paintings share a common: “Yin” matter (from Yin-Yang concepts) – it might be the afterlife world, also could be the inner spiritual/emotional realm character/the spirit locating inside bodies.



HCMC-Realist Artists Group Exhibition


Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum

97A Pho Duc Chinh Street, District 1,

The exhibition displays 70 oil paintings, acrylic paintings and watercolors by 14 Realist artists.

The exhibits could be about the places where we live, our experiences in life, about family, childhood, joy and loss…
