An art exhibition titled Shared Landscapes - Shared Civilisations opened on June 28 at the Vietnam National Exhibition Centre for Culture and Arts in Hanoi, bringing together more than 90 paintings by Vietnamese and Chinese artists.
The exhibition showcases more than 90 works of art, serving as a platform to strengthen cultural exchange and deepen artistic dialogue between Vietnam and China.
The event is part of a travelling exhibition series across ASEAN countries, jointly organised by the Vietnam Fine Arts Association, Guangxi Arts University and the Lijiang School of Painting Promotion Association of China.
Associate Professor, musician Do Hong Quan, President of the Vietnam Union of Literature and Arts Associations, delivers the opening remarks at the exhibition.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Associate Professor Do Hong Quan highlighted the historical and cultural similarities shared by Vietnam and China. He said the exhibition builds on the success of the 2025 music exchange programme between the Vietnam Musicians' Association and Guangxi Arts University, which featured eight symphonic works created under the shared theme Everlasting Friendship.
According to Do Hong Quan, the visiting delegation of artists and the travelling exhibition bring significant cultural value. The event offers Vietnamese audiences an opportunity to experience the artistic excellence of the Lijiang School of Painting while demonstrating the friendship, mutual understanding and close ties between artists from the two countries.

The exhibition features more than 90 paintings, including 19 works by members of the Vietnam Fine Arts Association. Using the distinctive brush-and-ink techniques of traditional Chinese painting, participating artists depict majestic landscapes, peaceful rural life, ethnic cultural identity and the rhythms of contemporary society.
Covering subjects ranging from landscapes and flowers to birds, portraits and everyday life, the collection not only captures the beauty of southern China's scenery but also reflects the rich cultural diversity of ASEAN countries. Each painting celebrates life, nature and the aspiration for harmony between humanity and the natural world.
Introducing the characteristics of the international artworks on display, Wei Junbin, President of Guangxi Arts University, said the Lijiang School is one of the regional schools that best represents the distinctive identity of contemporary Chinese painting.
Inspired by the picturesque landscapes of Guangxi and the realities of modern life, artists from the Lijiang School have developed a unique artistic style. Their works are deeply rooted in southern Chinese culture while expressing the harmonious relationship between people and nature.
