Discovering the beauty of Vietnam at the exhibition “Chào Việt Nam – Quê hương tôi”
A vibrant ribbon of color stretching over 300 meters, depicting Vietnam’s landscapes from the northernmost point of Lũng Cú to Cape Cà Mau in the south, has been introduced to the public at the exhibition, which opened on August 23 at the Hanoi Museum.

The exhibition features 63 large-scale paintings created using acrylic on canvas. The project was initiated by artist Ngô Bá Hoàng, a lecturer at the University of Industrial Fine Arts, and realized in collaboration with more than 40 painters and fine arts students. Launched in 2024, the project builds on the experience and inspiration drawn from the artist’s earlier work “Vietnam – A Tapestry of Landscapes” (3.3 m × 12 m), unveiled in 2020.

Through a realist approach combined with monumental painting techniques, each artwork portrays the natural beauty, cultural richness, and human spirit across Vietnam’s S-shaped land. Beyond its impressive scale, the exhibition conveys a broader message of nurturing patriotism, fostering national pride, and expanding public access to visual arts.

It is organized through the collaboration of the Hanoi Museum, the Vietnam Fine Arts Association, the University of Industrial Fine Arts, and the Hanoi Creative Activities Coordination Center.
