Exhibits include paintings, graphic works, sculptures and installations in various materials such as oil paint, lacquer, silk, wood carving, water-colour and stone.
The works were made by 136 artists from nine provinces: Tay Ninh, Binh Phuoc, Binh Duong, Binh Thuan, Dak Nong, Dong Nai, Ninh Thuan, Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Lam Dong.
The organising board presented one A, one B and one C prize, along with four consolation prizes to outstanding works at the opening ceremony of the exhibition. The A prize went to K Minh Tuan from Lam Dong and the B prize was awarded to Huynh Huong from Binh Thuan. Meanwhile the C prize went to Pham Cong Hoang from Dong Nai.
Works feature Vietnam’s landscapes and people in their daily lives as well as the country’s seas and islands.
