From Embassy of the Republic of Poland:
The Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Hanoi has the pleasure to present the exhibition of the eminent Polish landscape painter Franciszek Ryszard MAZUREK. Born in 1951 F. R. Mazurek graduated from the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, Faculty of Fine arts. Since 1979 he has presented more than 30 individual exhibitions (in Poland, Ukraine, Germany, France, United Arab Emirates, Moldavia, Romania and Belgium and Vietnam, etc.) and participated in more than 11 group exhibitions (in Poland, Italy, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Russia, Romania and Hungary).

In October 2011, with the sponsorship of the Embassy of the Republic of Poland, the artist came to Vietnam to present his art works of the beauty of the landscapes of the Lublin region_ his hometown_ in Eastern Poland. This time, he came back with the Exhibition entitled ‘Landscapes of Vietnam’ featuring 33 paintings of the beauty of Vietnamese landscapes where he was travelling in October last year. With the same creative inspiration of finding what is usual and ordinary and transferring his observations onto his canvas, Mr. Mazurek’s paintings once again teach us to be humble to the passing of time; they preserve the shape of changing landscape characteristic of a particular place. One can find the beauty of this land in his paintings as well as the world full of memories and emotions. Regardless of what the opinion of modern painting is, this type of creative activity is another confirmation of the role which realistic art plays in contemporary world.

Free entrance.

The Exhibition is open to the public from 7/3 to 10/3/2012.
