I visited Dang Mau Tuu’s Song Nhu Gallery many times and realize that he paints a lot about Hue gardens. Each of his paintings tells a story about trees, people, and “fragrant” silences.

On July 29, Ms. Dinh Thi Hoai Trai, Director of Hue Museum of Fine Arts stated that the 8 paintings were created by 7 artists using various materials; in which, there were some paintings by artists whose works were already part of the museum’s collection.

Noticeable was the opening of the oil painting exhibition by Hoang Nhu Thuy An at Lieu Quan Buddhist Cultural Center. Hoang Nhu Thuy An is Hoang Nhu Bua’s pseudonym, born in 1948, originally from Cau Hai (Cao Do) in Phu Loc, Hue, but currently living in Da Lat. The special thing is that all those paintings were painted after his stroke culminating in hemiplegia. He has learnt to paint with his left hand since then.

From scraps of fabric seemingly destined for the trash, two students: Dong Nguyen Nhat Minh (Grade 6) and Lai The Tai (Grade 7) from Khe Tre Town Secondary School (Phu Loc District) have assembled them into vivid collage paintings that tell the story of their village, inspired by a deep love for Co Tu culture.

Amid the quiet walls of the Hue Museum of Fine Arts, the exhibition “The image of family in visual arts” was opened in the early days of June. The gallery is like a heartfelt symphony, pulling the feet of art lovers to stop, to listen to the whispers about origins.

More than 450 artworks by students were submitted to compete in the preliminary round of the 2025 Children’s Book-Inspired Drawing Contest with the theme “Ao dai and Childhood”.

The natural-colored paintings of pressed flowers and leaves under the hands of Vo Thi Quynh, a former literature teacher at Quoc Hoc Hue High school for the Gifted, bring viewers innocent and rustic emotions.

On April 2nd, Hue Museum of Fine Arts announced the conclusion of the creating program on the theme “Traditional Art of A Luoi”.

In the years from 1930 to 1937, painter Mai Trung Thu was appointed to teach drawing at Quoc Hoc High School. Here, his talent blossomed. Series of his paintings were born, depicting gentle Hue girls, the charming scenery of the Huong river and the temples and royal mausoleums. His paintings in Hue rendered him a solid position in modern Vietnamese painting.

The digital painting exhibition by Manuel Casimiro, a Portuguese artist, officially opened on the afternoon of March 5th at Lan Vien Co Tich (94 - 96 - 98 Bach Dang Street, Phu Xuan District, Hue City).
