From VCCA:
Featuring nearly 100 classic works in digital versions of two great Surrealists Rene Magritte and Frida Kahlo.
Rene Magritte (Belgium, 1898-1967) and Frida Kahlo (Mexican, 1907-1954) can be seen as the two extremes of Surrealism and the negative. If Frida – who always paints his own reality, Rene paints everyone’s reality – with a twist somewhere. Magritte’s works, from murals, magazine covers, to classics, are all aimed at an audience. To interact with the audience, Magritte is interested in creating puzzles, unknowns, and visual tricks. He wanted to paint the impossible as a form of realistic expression, thus free from coincidences and coincidences, which was the opposite of contemporary Surrealist painters.

From the organizer:
A solo exhibition by Ha Manh Thang featuring 16 experimental works that illustrate the artist’s continued fascination with materiality, time, and the excavation of history and cultural heritage.
The exhibition title borrows from ‘Hương Sơn Phong Canh Ca’ (Huong Son Landscape Song) by the renowned Nguyen Dynasty intellectual Chu Mạnh Trinh. The poem encapsulates well the complexity of emotions when one is confronted by the magnificence of nature. The same sentiment can also be observed in Thắng’s artistic practice. Over the years he has focused on exploring the polysemic nature of landscape, and the evolution of viewing landscape in art from ancient times up to the present.
