Japan’s contemporary fine arts to be introduced in Vietnam
Update: May 10, 2010
An exhibition of Japanese contemporary fine arts will be held for the first time in Hanoi, Hue and Ho Chi Minh City from May 14-15.

The exhibition, themed “Journey to the Future: Fine Arts – New Generation of Japan”, will be organised by the Japan Foundation to celebrate the 1,000th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi.

On display will be 42 painting, sculpture, photography and video works by 11 Japanese contemporary artists that draw inspiration from the daily life of Japanese people.

The organising board said it hoped the exhibition will bring fresh impressions about on the Japanese contemporary fine arts in particular and the art in general to Vietnamese audiences.
