Reality is fertile ground for cultivating emotions.
On December 30, 2024, the Council for the Literature and Arts Award named after the scholar Le Quy Don announced the results of the award for the 2012 - 2017 and 2017 - 2022 periods. Impressively, in the field of photography, Thai Binh artists were honored to have works that won first, second, third, and encouragement prizes in both periods, demonstrating their persistent, passionate, and creative artistic work. The works highly appreciated by the art council include "Flood Prevention" by artist Nguyen Ngoc Thu, "Traditional Profession" by artist Nguyen Duy Dong, "Minute of Rest" by artist Nguyen Phuc Anh, "Sea Village Festival" by artist Le Huu Dung, etc.
Regarding his “brainchild”, NSNA Nguyen Duy Dong shared: Although there have been valuable works, for artists, artistic work is a process of tirelessly searching for new things, creating because the reality of life is always fertile ground for cultivating emotions. The work “Traditional Profession” is a moment I encountered during my creative field trip. At any age, artists are always enthusiastic about trips, not only the field trips organized by the branch, the Provincial Literature and Arts Association or the central professional association, but we ourselves always try to set aside fixed periods of time to focus on creating. The result of these trips is that many works like “Traditional Profession” have reached the public not only domestically but also internationally.
According to the artists, the field trip is not only an opportunity to bring life to the artwork, but also an opportunity for each artist to exchange, learn experiences, and improve their professional expertise in artistic creation.
Artist Nguyen Phuc Anh, Head of the Photography Association, Provincial Literature and Arts Association, shared: Currently, the Association has 23 members, including 9 members of the Vietnam Association of Photographers. The Provincial Literature and Arts Association in general, and the Photography Association in particular, always have orientations for each member to grasp their role in propaganda work. The members have good ideas, many artists create and promote works of art close to major events and festivals of their homeland and country. In 2024, the Association tried to overcome difficulties, organizing many creative groups inside and outside the province. Through that, members strive to have many quality works to participate in domestic and international photo contests. As a result, almost all photo contests have the Association's mark.
Promote the beauty of the homeland
Promoting the role of NSNA in promoting the beauty of the homeland, recently, the Provincial Literature and Arts Association has actively coordinated with the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism to encourage artists to participate in the Thai Binh Beautiful Photo Contest to select photos to serve the propaganda activities of political tasks, economic development, culture, society, promotion, trade promotion, services, and tourism of the province. At the same time, through the contest, it contributes to encouraging, motivating, honoring the spirit of artistic creativity and contributing to attracting domestic and international tourists. Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hang, President of the Provincial Literature and Arts Association informed: The collective of artists in the Photography Association is very united, unanimous, innovative and creative in performing their tasks. Promoting the achievements of the past years, 2025 is the year of many major events in the country in general, Thai Binh province in particular, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Literature and Arts Association believes that these activities will be one of the issues that artists pay attention to and implement. More than ever, we hope that artists will further promote their passion for creativity, constantly study and accumulate creative experience to have works of high value in content and art, spreading among all classes of people.
Ms. Tran Thi Thu Dong, Vice President of the Vietnam Union of Literature and Arts Associations, President of the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists, shared: With the passion for creation, enthusiasm and achievements over the years of the artists of the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists in Thai Binh, we believe that in the coming time, there will be more new members who are qualified to join the Association, contributing to the advancement of Thai Binh photography. To facilitate the members to be admitted to the Association, the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists hopes that Thai Binh province will have a photography contest with the brand of the province organized annually, and the Association is ready to provide professional sponsorship.
The professional sponsorship of the provincial photography contest by the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists will be an important basis for members of the central branch in Thai Binh, through their winning works at the contest, to have the opportunity to have their high-quality works considered and receive support in terms of creative conditions... For authors who are not members of the branch, if they win high prizes, they will be counted for points, as a prerequisite for admission to the branch when they have enough required points. Thus, this is a favorable condition for the Thai Binh Photography Branch in general, and the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists in Thai Binh in particular, to have new outstanding factors. Young artists with enthusiasm, passion, and quickness in accessing modern technology and embracing the development of world photography will follow in the footsteps of previous generations to build Thai Binh photography to develop more and more.
