On the afternoon of July 6, the art event "The Shape of Sound" was organized by the Thua Thien Hue Fine Arts Association in collaboration with Song Huong Magazine and the family of the late artist Vo Xuan Huy at 9 Pham Hong Thai St.

One rainy day in Hue, I received an elaborate and impressive design for artist Dang Mau Tuu’s upcoming painting exhibition in Hanoi. It is surprising because he recently had an exhibition “Aotearoa - a region of white clouds” at Hue Museum of Fine Arts in June 2023, after he had just returned from New Zealand. Four months later, he continued with his own exhibition titled “Specks of dust in life” in Hanoi with 20 works painted on acrylic. This is Dang Mau Tuu’s first solo exhibition in Hanoi.

In a late summer afternoon, I climbed up the slope in the western hilly area of Hue to visit an artist.

On the late afternoon of November 18, the University of Arts, Hue University held a ceremony to celebrate 40th year anniversary of Vietnamese Teachers’ Day and honor artistic prizes in 2022.

An exhibition reserved for female artists takes place in late October, the month in which there is the day that celebrates Vietnamese women. People go there not only to see paintings, but also to immerse themselves in a women world so that they can understand and love more deeply the stories which the female artists tell through their paintings.

Artist Phan Hai Bang, a co-founder of the art of Truc Chi, has been honored with the Lebadang Art Foundation Award. This is one of the awards established in accordance with the will of the late talented artist Le Ba Dang.

The Gac Trinh (Trinh Attic) Group (2012 - 2015) has just donated a painting by the late artist Dinh Cuong to Hue Museum of Fine Arts. The painting depicted his friend, the late musician Trinh Cong Son.

In 2015, Dang Tien, a critic, wrote me that he had just found a painting of the Perfume river by Bauchaud, a French artist, in 1902. The beautiful painting vividly depicted women from the market waiting to get on the boat by the Perfume river. The painting later appeared on the cover of the special issue of the Song Huong Magazine (Perfume River Magazine) in March 2015.
