The exhibition presents more than 150 works that celebrate the majestic and poetic beauty of Vietnam’s landscapes through the creative perspectives of contemporary artists.

On display are multi-medium pieces, including lacquer, silk, watercolor, woodblock prints, gouache, colored pencil, and oil pastel, by 34 artists, from sixth-grade students to those under 60. Each of the 150 works offers a distinct view of the country, people, culture, and nature, from cities to highlands, from rural areas to far-flung islands, united by a heartfelt resonance with the homeland. The love of country is conveyed with inspired forms and rich palettes.

Speaking at the opening, Nguyen Lien Huong, Deputy Director of the Center for Cultural and Scientific Activities at the Temple of Literature – Quoc Tu Giam, said, “The ‘Nuoc Non Ngan Dam’ exhibition is not only an artistic event but also a bridge of the soul, nurturing love for the homeland and the nation, especially among younger generations. The Temple of Literature – Quoc Tu Giam, together with the Toi Ve Club, is honored to host this event as a tribute to the nation on the 80th National Day.”

In addition to free admission through September 3, 2025, the event features weekend workshops, and other engaging activities for all ages.
