Next project | Architecture and Fine Arts during the reign of Khai Dinh, a historical perspective

Architecture of each nation evolves and develops along a historical trajectory. Particularly, royal architecture establishes solid foundations refined over time, becoming the formal language through which art thrives. Each dynasty selects its own stylistic language as a benchmark for evaluation and a marker of its era.
The selective inheritance across dynasties shapes the orthodox architectural tradition. This tradition adheres to strict principles of form-making, setting standards that serve as measures of artistic creativity. However, the end of each dynasty invariably signifies adaptations to external influences. Ultimately, the flow of architecture is once again reshaped and renewed, continuing its progression.

Emperor Khai Dinh utilized to infuse a sense of national identity into the architectural and artistic works of the royal court. These projects, executed during the late Nguyen dynasty, reflect a deliberate effort to adapt proactively to the changing circumstances.

Nearly a century later, the art of ceramic mosaic from the Khai Dinh era continues to flourish in temples, pagodas, shrines, and tombs.

Next project | Artist Ca Le Thang and the exhibition “Dong Chim Day Nuoc”

Artist Ca Le Thang

The exhibition “Dong Chim Day Nuoc”, taking place at Wiking Salon from December 14, 2024 to January 19, 2025, is an event marking the more than three-decade artistic journey of the famous painter Ca Le Thang. With more than 20 emotional works, the exhibition not only reflects childhood memories of the flood season in the West, but also tells the story of inner rebirth through abstract art. Curated by Le Thien Bao, this event promises to bring an in-depth look at the journey of searching for and affirming the unique artistic language of one of the pioneers of Vietnamese fine arts.

Architect Ho Viet Vinh met Artist Kao Dung at the event.

“With childhood memories of the flood season in the Mekong Delta, Ca Le Thang breathed life into his paintings with intense, expressive brushstrokes. He created a natural abstraction, both dreamlike and realistic: where memories and emotions intersect.”

Ru
Ru đời mấy giấc chiêm bao,
Xôn xao như gió ngã nhào bờ mê,
Ru quê cho tỏ đường về,
Tỉ tê câu chuyện bờ đê mái đình,
Ru mình chỉ mấy lời kinh,
Tâm minh hồn triết thanh hình sắc tao.

Lullaby
Lull life’s dreams in fleeting flight,
Stirred like winds tumbling on enchanted dikes,
Lull the homeland, reveal the path home,
Whisper tales by riverbanks and village halls,
Lull the self with sacred dharmas,
Enlightened soul, wisdom’s grace in form and rhyme.

Next project | Cảnh quan bản địa

Những vệt cắt của địa tầng cảnh quan tạo cho vùng đất một tính cách riêng biệt mang âm hưởng bản địa.

Những khối đá ủ mình trong đất được ôm ấp và tâm tình với bóng đêm và làm bạn với những quân đoàn mối và côn trùng.

Những gốc dương xỉ cổ đại sần sùi, gân guốc chạm mặt ngã nghiêng hứng giọt nắng của trời để ngập ngụa trong màu xanh mơn mởn của tàng lá.

Cả ba dạng hình thái của sự sống cùng hội tụ để tạo nên ý niệm cảnh quan bản địa nơi vùng đất đầy gió và mây này.
