The artists' expressions go closest to the hearts of viewers with simple, ordinary beauty from new discoveries in daily life. Thereby contributing to creating a playground for all artists and art lovers, making daily life more beautiful and meaningful.
As a guest attending the Exhibition, Prof. Dr. Dam Won Kim Chang Bae - Vice President of the Korean Arts Association highly appreciated the enthusiasm of Vietnamese artists.
“Art has no borders or limits. In the future, I hope that Vietnamese and Korean artists will have the opportunity to meet and support each other to develop together. I also hope to organize an exhibition of lotus paintings and Buddhism with artist Nguyen Thi Kim Duc and the Vietnam Fine Arts Association.
As a Buddhist, I love lotus very much. I have painted many works about lotus, and at the same time, researched and published books about lotus. For Koreans, lotus is beautiful and pure even though it lives in mud. Therefore, I will return to Vietnam, visit many places to admire and create more works about lotus. I also hope that not only Vietnamese people but also people around the world can sympathize and love lotus like me and artist Kim Duc", Mr. Dam Won Kim Chang Bae expressed.
The exhibition runs until July 4.
