Training and improving professional skills for members
The Provincial Literature and Arts Association currently has 147 members, operating in 8 affiliated branches, including 4 specialized branches and 4 local branches. In the 2017-2022 term, the Dak Nong Provincial Literature and Arts Association has 11 members admitted to the Central Committee in the fields of fine arts, photography, music, dance, literature and arts of ethnic minorities, reaching 300% of the target set by the Resolution of the 3rd Congress.
To date, Dak Nong has 40 Central members. Notably, the Dak Nong Provincial Literature and Arts Association has 2 members admitted to the Vietnam Writers Association, marking the elimination of the “blank area” of Vietnam Writers Association members in Dak Nong.
Every year, the Association coordinates with the Department of Education and Training to organize literature and art training courses for students, with two majors: literature and fine arts. Through these training courses, many talented and passionate young writers have been discovered. Some of them have become promising writers, regularly having their works published in newspapers and magazines.
In order to improve the quality of works for members, the organization of competitions and the training of literary and artistic works are focused on by the Provincial Literature and Arts Association. Many literary and artistic creation activities were organized for the first time and achieved high quality such as the Poetry Contest in Nam Nung Magazine; the Artistic Photography Contest "Dak Nong in Me"; the Song Composition Contest about Dak Nong, the Photography and Fine Arts Exhibition... attracting the participation of members and artists nationwide.
On the other hand, through training courses, specialized training in composition, literary criticism, fine arts, photography... has contributed to improving the professional skills and awareness of members and collaborators. The quality of content, ideology and artistic value of the works has been improved.
Field trips to create works of art are not only an opportunity for many works of art to be "conceived" and completed, but also an opportunity for artists to meet, exchange, share experiences, and fuel their passion for creation.
Painter Nguyen Ngoc Khai, Head of the Fine Arts Association, Provincial Literature and Arts Association, shared: “Every year, based on the Association’s general plan, we are given the opportunity to travel to localities inside and outside the province to create works. In addition to finding new catalysts for ourselves, we can learn more by listening to the opinions of our colleagues.”
Reaping success
Innovating in artistic creation activities, the Fine Arts Association has achieved many successes in the 2017-2022 term. During the term, the association had 99 art works of its members selected to be displayed at art exhibitions in the VII region - Southeast. Of these, 6 works won awards, 19 works were introduced to be considered for the Vietnam Union of Literature and Arts Associations award.
Similarly, the Photography major has achieved many successes with many works selected for display at regional, national and international art photography festivals and competitions. In 2022, Artist Ngo Minh Phuong won the Vapa Cup - the highest award of the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists and many gold medals and honorary certificates at international photography competitions.
Not only in the field of Fine Arts and Photography, according to Mr. Dang Van Dung, Chairman of the Provincial Literature and Arts Association, with the dynamism and creativity in organization, the province's cultural and artistic activities have improved a lot. The affiliated branches operate effectively, following the Party's cultural and artistic guidelines. The number of works winning awards at regional competitions, performances and festivals has increased significantly.
In the coming time, the Association will continue to innovate, improve the quality of its activities, proactively coordinate and advise, propose to Party committees and authorities at all levels to create favorable conditions for the team of writers, researchers, and critics of literature and arts to promote their creativity in creating works and works of literature and arts with artistic and content values, contributing to fostering the ideology and aesthetics of the people...
