Four months later, he continued with his own exhibition titled “Specks of dust in life” in Hanoi with 20 works painted on acrylic. This is Dang Mau Tuu’s first solo exhibition in Hanoi.

The exhibition was organized by Hue Monuments Conservation Center in collaboration with Germany's Society for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage, Fulda (GEKE) on November 20.

Through many ups and downs, the Hue royal court music has been carefully preserved and empowered through generations, acting as a strong connection of the past with the present and the future.
