Hanoi Harmonies: Here and Then and Now
This year’s AAL exhibition in Sotheby’s offers a selection of Vietnamese and Indochine paintings in lacquer, silk, oil, and watercolour on handmade paper as well as limited edition woodblock prints, from the 1920s through the present. Exhibiting artists include Marie Antoinette Boullard-Deve, Louis Rollet, Le Minh, Vinh Phoi, Luu Cong Nhan, Bui Xuan Phai, Nguyen Tu Nghiem, Phung Pham, Tran Huu Chat, Dinh Thi Tham Poong, Vu Thu Hien, Vu Duc Trung and Vu Dinh Tuan.
Vietnamese fine art takes many forms and encompasses a wide range of purposes and points of view. Vietnamese artists today are experimenting with the richly textured weaving of past and present, East and West, spiritual and mundane. The best of Vietnamese contemporary fine art bridges the temporal worlds of past, present and future and spans the cultural divide of East and West – truly harmonies in space and time.
