Each artwork unveils its own story, from simple childhood memories and distinctive regional cultures to sacred symbols tied to history.
These could be the vibrant traditional garments of highland communities, simple relics of a bygone era, or the sacred red flag with a yellow star.
The series of artworks – pieces of the Vietnamese spirit – will form a visual space where memories, the present, and aspirations intersect.
In each stroke is a love for the homeland, a tribute to previous generations, and a belief in a bright future that the younger generation continues to write.
“Proud Nation” is part of a series of exhibitions organized by the Van Mieu-Quoc Tu Giam Cultural and Scientific Activity Center in collaboration with the creative enterprise TiredCity.
The event is supported and promoted by the Vietnam Local Artist Group (VLAG), Cổ Động, Chuyện của Hà Nội, RGB, and Hoa Văn Đại Việt.
The event offers a fresh artistic experience, helping to spread historical, cultural, and Vietnamese values beyond geographical and generational boundaries to reach young people, gradually positioning Văn Miếu-Quốc Tử Giám as a prominent Cultural & Creative destination in Hanoi.
