The
female artists are presenting 68 paintings presented in silk and oil as
well as statues and earthenware at the exhibition, which has opened at
the city’s Fine Arts Association.
The works share common themes
and subject matters, including an obvious interest in flowers, still
life, peaceful landscapes, the turbulence and the beauty of life and,
most notably, a strong female world view.
“The paintings are
strongly personal and feminine. Each artist has her unique form of
expression and uses different materials in which she specialises,”
painter Pham Do Dong, Vice President of HCMC’s Fine Arts Association,
said.
In addition to works displayed at the exhibition, many
painters are creating new paintings and statues to prepare for next
month’s exhibition to greet Liberation Day on April 30,” painter Nguyen
Thi Tam, Manager of the city’s Women Artists’ Club, said.
The exhibition, which is at the Fine Arts Association, 218A Pasteur Street, District 3, will last until March 15.
To
Hoai Nam and Vo Nam, two teachers of HCMC’s Fine Arts College, are
displaying their works in a joint exhibition, which opened last weekend
at the college.
Hoai Nam’s works feature romantic landscapes of
Gyeongnam in the Republic of Korea where he took part in an art
creation camp for Asian painters last year.
The exhibition at the Fine Arts College, 5 Phan Dang Luu Street in Binh Thanh District will last until March 15.
According
to sources from the Fine Arts Association, several exhibitions will be
held in the city this month, including a solo exhibition of painter
Nguyen Hung Trinh from the central province of Khanh Hoa from March 23
to April. |
