"Nostalgia" of Nguyen Quoc Dung

Exhibition: 04 Feb – 05 Mar 2012
Tu Do Gallery
53 Ho Tung Mau Str, Dist 1, HCMC

From Tu Do Gallery:
You are invited to an painting exhibition by artist Nguyen Quoc Dung titled “Drops of Spring”. Nguyen Quoc Dung follows the European Realism, a style consisting many criteria that became a main stream one in Vietnam with the establishment of Indochina Fine Arts College in 1926 in Hanoi. And while he’s obsessed by concepts in western classical art, Dzung is also influenced by eastern culture and by traditional style, too. This might be the only tiny deterrent in the understanding between viewers and painter.

See more his works in the website of gallery.
