Natural landscapes and the people of Viet Nam and the Republic of Korea (RoK) are highlighted through 130 art works at the Viet Nam-RoK Fine Arts Exchange Exhibition which opened in Ho Chi Minh City on November 11.
Images of the countries and their people are illustrated on wood sculpture, lacquer, oil and silk paintings.
In addition, visitors to the exhibition also have chance to contemplate the RoK’s standout genres like traditional ink wash painting and Nubi (RoK traditional quilting).
