The show expresses the artist’s mixed feelings for the northern countryside of Vietnam from his childhood.
The exhibition is a collection of 36 artworks on oil, wood and poonah-paper which depict beautiful villages, water buffalos, bamboo groves and seasonal crops in the northern countryside.
Cuong said: “My beautiful hometown is in my heart and I hope visitors will love it also.” Such romantic scenes often bring back fond memories of his childhood.
Cuong is an outstanding artist who is devoted to capturing the Vietnamese countryside in his paintings. His works focus on cattle, children, brick kilns, fields, rural rivers and a bamboo range. These romantic and dreamy scenes bring back childhood memories and express his desire to get away from city life and return to peaceful surroundings back home.
The show runs until August 10 at the center, 49 Nguyen Du Street in Hanoi’s Hai Ba Trung District.
