This is the first solo exhibition of Quan, a member of the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Association. Despite being a veteran painter, it is the first time Quan has tried his hand with the watercolour material.

A total of 68 paintings on display vividly depict the natural beauty and daily life along rivers across the southwest region.

Painter Huynh Van Muoi, Chairman of Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Association hailed that the paintings succeeded in conveying the gentle life, openness and hospitality of local people, which can be found while travelling across the Tien and Hau rivers.

The exhibition will run until October 6 at the headquarter of the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Association, 218A Pasteur street, Ward 6, District 3.
