Exhibition “100 Years Later” by Vu Duc Trung at Dong Phong Gallery
Exhibition: 12 Dec 2015 – 12 Jan 2016
Dong Phong Art Gallery
From Dong Phong Art Gallery:
It is too long humans may live and nobody knows who we are tomorrow. The visible and invisible faces patched by colours with streaks and blotches of different shades, lighted up with a brilliant lustre of lacquer materials. The paintings, that might be a self-portrait of the artist or portraits of someone cross his life, could only be deeply enjoyed at a far enough distance.
Ignoring the principles of shape and form, mastering lacquer techniques utilizing advantages of the substances, Vu Duc Trung expresses his emotional responses to human life by this series of the portraits. Showing somewhere in his paintings are wavering water and mystical landscapes, which are the artist’s main study subject. However in this period, the artist deliberately creates portraits like illusions, which as time goes by will fade away, will undergo change by falling into decay to miserable empty.
Talk less do more; continuation in his works follows the path that the artist has paved by years. His progress in art has endured through time without the existence of outliers.
5 years, 10 years, 20 years are in progress… This process was created and has been continued likes the flow of water, the sound of forest, the rise and fall of someone’s life, one hundred years after…
Come to the lacquer-painting exhibition “100 Years Later” by the Vu Duc Trung to enjoy and feel his works beneath layers and layers of resin. The exhibition will take place at Dong Phong Art Gallery, #3 Ly Dao Thanh, Hanoi, from 12 December 2015 to 12 January 2016.
