The painting “Đồng quê” (Countryside) by artist Nguyen Hong Quang

The exhibition showcases unique works by artists Nguyen Minh Nam, Nguyen Ngoc Thanh, Nguyen Van Thanh, Nguyen Xuan Quyen, Nguyen Hong Quang, Vu Dang Suc, Nguyen Van Lai, and Tran Quang Trung, all deeply imbued with the cultural and artistic identity of the Kinh Bac region.

Kinh Bac is not merely the name of a region in Northern Vietnam, but also represents a distinctive cultural and artistic heritage that has been shaped and developed over thousands of years. It is a place of origin and deep connection for many artists.

This land carries a unique cultural identity with its traditional Quan Ho folk singing, exquisite handicrafts, and rich customs and traditions. From this region, an endless stream of artistic inspiration flows, nurturing the souls and imaginations of its native artists, such as Nguyen Minh Nam, Nguyen Ngoc Thanh, Nguyen Van Thanh, Nguyen Xuan Quyen, Nguyen Hong Quang, Vu Dang Suc, Nguyen Van Lai, and Tran Quang Trung.

Each artist contributes unique works to the exhibition, created with dedication and a deep love for art, reflecting the simple yet profound beauty of the life around them.

Kinh Bac Art 3 is the third edition of the contemporary painting exhibition, aiming to offer art enthusiasts a fresh perspective on the painting traditions of the Quan Ho region. From artworks capturing the simple beauty of daily life to those highlighting the distinct culture and traditions of Bac Ninh, the pieces take viewers on an emotional and captivating journey. Contemporary painting art is vividly expressed through the innovative, creative, and inspiring perspectives of the artists, showcasing a seamless blend of tradition and modernity.

The Kinh Bắc Art 3 contemporary painting exhibition is open to the public from 9 AM to 5 PM, from December 8-13, 2024.
