SCHOOLGIRLS, AN OIL BY NGUYEN THANH BINH
Sold for £300
NGUYEN THANH BINH (VIETNAMESE b 1954),
SCHOOLGIRLS
oil on canvas, signed
80cm x 100cm
Framed.
Note: Nguyen Thanh Binh was born in 1954 in Hanoi. Binh likens his preference for simplicity in composition and design to his own way of life, citing he wants to express the happiness and sorrow of the Vietnamese souls in his works. Binh also does not just see females for their physical forms but is inspired by the sense of each woman, that elusive feminine mystery that can change like the wind. The sense of movement each woman has when she sits, stands, or lies down, whether dancing or playing sport, tells a story about who she is as an individual as well as other stories when she is with other people. Although Binh has been influenced by western art and its aesthetics, his art falls well within the philosophical and aesthetic sphere of Asia. From 1985 Binh's work started reaching a wider international audience through solo shows and group exhibitions in Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Thailand, Japan (Tokyo), South Korea, Australia, USA (including New York & Miami), France (Paris), Belgium and in London. Binh is a member of Vietnam Fine Art Association.
