The exhibition provides an opportunity for ceramic artworks to not only bring aesthetic beauty but, more importantly, to reflect the evolving creative styles of the artists, thereby contributing to the new face of contemporary Vietnamese fine arts. It not only showcases artistic exchange but also serves as a bridge connecting artists from two regions with distinct cultural characteristics and artistic styles.
