The Turtle Tower, the One Pillar Pagoda, and Vietnamese symbols make an impressive appearance in the lacquer art of painter Chu Nhat Quang.

A display of 52 lacquer paintings at the UNESCO-recognized Thang Long Imperial Citadel will honor traditional lacquer art and reflect the capital's rich cultural and historical heritage.

Theaters in Hanoi have been hosting a variety of arts programs to raise funds for people affected by the storm and flooding in the north.

Three artists have joined forces to stage 'Otherwise', an exhibition expressing their affection for Hanoi and raising funds to help those affected by superstorm Yagi.

For those who create string art, the fruits of their labor are thousands of needles, hundreds of yards of thread, and countless bruises from hammering their hands.

The exhibition features calligraphic artwork inspired by famous poets and writers who wrote about Hanoi and the Temple of Literature.

The handicrafts show the extremely skillful combination of patterns, motifs and colors, one of the most outstanding features of traditional Iranian art.

Using the visual language of oil painting, lacquer, ceramics, and silk, the artists will tell stories about the sediments of Vietnamese heritage and the cultural values hidden in contemporary life.

The lacquer works of Hanoi artist Chu Quang combine tradition and modernity, depicting simple yet profound scenes of the northern countryside.

Portraits of artists and business people who have made significant contributions to the culture of Hanoi will be on display.
