Showcase “The Age after Divinity” by Nguyen Manh Hung

 
Showcase “The Age after Divinity” by Nguyen Manh Hung.
Showcase “The Age after Divinity” by Nguyen Manh Hung.
Manzi Art Space is proud to present a series of new works entitled “The Age After Divinity” by Hanoi-born surrealist, Nguyen Manh Hung, whose playful, irony-laden work has been turning heads in the contemporary art scene of Vietnam.
Depicting activities and events of daily life in an absurd world, this series of oil and water colour paintings presents immersive environments with droll juxtapositions that cleverly allude to cultural realities, social conflicts, the complexities of civic development and individual responsibility in Vietnam today.
Focusing on the visual relationships of disjointed elements and unusual scales, with “The Age After Divinity”, Hung has conveyed his wry sense of humour and boldly brought audiences to a world in which everything is made bare through his biting irony.
The entry is free to the public.
Time: Friday July 6 at 6:00 pm
Venue: Manzi Art Space, 14 Phan Huy Ich, Hanoi
