From the organizer:

“Non Cubism – Portrait 2016” is focused on portraying the silence, sadness, delusion, passion of characters. Nguyen Quoc Dan said this is the way to express his emotions and feelings about life. The characteristics of these works are creating impression through “color cords”, he called this is “the color of feelings”.

This is the fourth exhibition of Nguyen Quoc Dan and his works are still used the “color cords” to present his idea – Non Cubism. Three previous events are: “Non Cubism – Nguyen Quoc Dan 2011” (Applied Art Gallery, Fine Art University, HCMC); “Multicolor Non Cubism – Nguyen Quoc Dan 2012” (Fine Art Museum, HCMC); “Non Cubism Chalk – Nguyen Quoc Dan 2014” (36 Dinh Bo Linh street, Binh Thanh Dist, HCMC).

The exhibition “Non Cubism – Portrait 2016” has many different features from the previous ones. The first thing is the whole works in this exhibition are used oil paint to make the “Color cords” on canvas. Each color cord on the canvas creates the vividness and trueness through the multi-dimension perspective. Color cords visually interact with each other, the color impact strongly which brings a new painting sensation to viewers while the interaction of colors are connected randomly.
