KVT – Beautiful!!!
![]() | ![]() |
Once upon a time beauty was central to the definition of art. At Nha San Duc, artist Le Huy Hoang has made that definition a modern reality in his exceedingly beautiful installation, “Rain”.
Two weeks to assemble… about a million rau cay sprouts… up to ten thousand acupuncture needles… and the end result is… beautiful!
I was lucky enough to spend an hour alone with the piece and that wasn’t enough.
Why say more. Let my inadequate images speak for themselves.
Try to see it before it closes on the 30th. It’s unlikely you’ll see any art more beautiful this year.
Not a reviewer, not a critic, “Kiếm Văn Tìm” is an interested, impartial and informed observer and connoisseur of the Hanoi art scene who offers highly opinionated remarks and is part of the long and venerable tradition of anonymous correspondents.

Hi KVT,
I have been following your writing since I moved to Hanoi! Love your style, such panache! It reminds me a tad of my two favorite blogs (The Daily Candy) and well, the next one is a catalog The J. Peterman Catalog. Why aren’t you writing for our magazine, East&West? LOL… if you are interested in more freelance work, kindly let me know!
Kind Regards,
Nathalie

Có 1 sự mâu thuẫn rất lớn giữa ý nghĩa mà tác giả đề ra cho tác phẩm này và hình thức của tác phẩm . Đúng ra tác phẩm phải đem đến 1 cảm giác bất an . Nhưng nó lại …rất đẹp . Bạn có hình dung ra 1 người muốn cảnh báo về một điều rất tồi tệ sắp xảy ra nhưng lại bằng cách vui tươi véo von một câu hát không ?
