3 Interesting Art Exhibitions In Ho Chi Minh City December 2023

Any art lover, who is passionate about art pieces and fond of enjoying quality exhibitions, should not miss ones such as the ones below. CHUS has looked around and found 3 interesting exhibitions taking place this December 2023 in Ho Chi Minh City for you to visit and let your artistic soul run free! 

1. “CONTEMPLATING LANDSPACE” Exhibition

This is a solo exhibition by the talented artist Nguyễn Thế Dung, taking place at J Art Space in Thảo Điền. Here, you'll have the opportunity to admire 20 oil paintings that reflect the artist's "insights" into familiar scenes and objects in life through an artistic lens.

"I enjoy the fusion of classical and Pop art. Classical beauty demands expressive techniques and mastery of color. Pop brings modern, practical, and deeply familiar beauty. That's why I deeply value the artist's creativity because creativity never ends, as the artist is always haunted by colors," said Nguyễn Thế Dung. (Source: Thanh Niên Newspaper).
