Nguyen Thanh Binh (Hanoi, 1954)
Nguyen Thanh Binh is an exponent of the
increasing popularity of Vietnamese art. After graduating from art
institutes in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, he achieved
international recognition for his graceful paintings. His work
is frequently being exhibited around Asia, America and Europe.
The artist says of his work:
"I'm not
trying to follow any trends, I'm just searching for beauty as I see it,
a beauty for everyone. The structure in my paintings tells the viewer
many things beyond the surface. The aim in my work is to condense the
narrative. I like minimal subject and a maximum idea just like Japanese
Haiku"

a high potential artist. The appreciation of his work is expected
to rise even more in the years to come. |
