The exhibition features 50 paintings and prints by 16 Vietnamese artists from three major cities of Hanoi, Haiphong and Ho Chi Minh City, and two paintings by a Mongolian volunteer artist.

Vietnamese Ambassador to Mongolia Doan Khanh Tam said the cultural event aims to celebrate the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Mongolia (1954-2024).

"The exhibition is an opportunity to enhance mutual understanding between the people of Vietnam and Mongolia, and promote the valuable bilateral cooperation between the two countries," he said.

According to the organizer, the works on display convey the multifaceted aspects of contemporary Vietnamese art. Through the exhibition, the artists hope to introduce the Mongolian audience to Vietnam's contemporary art scene and help them gain a better insight into Vietnam's beautiful landscapes, culture and friendly people.

The exhibition not only shows a part of Vietnam's natural scenery but also reflects the artists' lives and efforts to explore the themes and create them in the artistic language. Rich in styles, from realism to expressionism and abstraction, the paintings are diverse in themes, including natural landscapes, people, and portraits on various materials, such as oil paint, acrylic on canvas, wood carving on paper, and others.

Besides paintings with Vietnamese themes, there are also works depicting the beauty of Mongolia through the eyes of Vietnamese artists. Painter Trinh Tuan said he was very proud to have the opportunity to display his works in the exhibition. "It will help further intensify art exchanges between the two countries in the near future," he said.
