EXHIBITION
Hanoi-Exhibition: “Bottoms”
Until June 15
BLUE gallery, No.32 Trang Tien Street,
From the organizer:
Human body: spirituality of forms.
While known for his unconventional sculptures, Vuong Van Thao (1969), a graduate of Hanoi Fine Arts University (1995), has also continuously been working on his do paper series that exploits the ability of this traditional Vietnamese medium to physically generate the effect of the real and of the imaginary.
These works created since 1998 have a human body as its focus and cultivate its capacity to convey ideas and attitudes. The paintings, some subtle and delicate, others direct and expressive, incorporate body parts, that remain taboo for the visual art scene in Vietnam.

From the organizer:
Over the past two decades, Lim Khim Katy has been earnestly painting with a passion and dedication that is perhaps only fully appreciated by a few who know her very well. The entire oeuvre of works of Katy since 2002 represent, however, a manifestly impressive and profound achievement possible only for a uniquely talented and disciplined artist. Living and working in Saigon for the course of her artistic career to date, Katy has created an ever evolving and expanding visual record of contemporary life in Vietnam’s southern metropolis.
Hanoi-Exhibition: Reflection of the Doubled Scenery
25 May – 15 June 2022, 10 am – 07 pm
Hanoi Studio Gallery, 13 Trang Tien Street
From the organizer:
The series is “the story of a person standing somewhere between worlds, at the juncture of the future and the past. Ahead is an unfamiliar and overwhelming land and culture which needs to be grasped, yet is full of challenges and difficulties to integrate and to continue on the creative journey. Behind is a period of life with nostalgic colors of memories, childhood, and yearning love for the homeland. In the end, art was left with only one voice, one mood, one imbued love, laid out on a collection of 24 black and white artworks full of sincere emotions that artist Do Tuan Anh portrayed during harsh years of the epidemic.”
