The event, which draws the participation of some 60 painters from 22 countries and territories, is the largest-ever international watercolour exhibition in Vietnam. It is an initiative of VietnamInAcquarello, a branch of the International Watercolour Museum – the world’s largest community of watercolour painters – based in Italy. Under the “Colours of Cultures” project, all the rest out of the total 464 paintings will be on display at Nhau Studio at No.364 Doi Can Street, Ba Dinh district from March 16-26.
