Photo exhibition showcases Vietnamese battle against COVID-19
VOV.VN - Photos capturing the nation’s fight against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic have gone on show at an exhibit at Phan Boi Chau park in Hue in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue.
The event has been organised by the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists with the aim of honouring various photographers who snapped excellent photos of the situation, therefore contributing to popularising the communication campaign relating to COVID-19 prevention and control.
A number of the images on show have been selected from a contest launched by the association following the submission of 2,748 artworks from 406 entrants nationwide.
The exhibition has divided single photos and photo collections into various subjects, including Government guidelines, Vietnam in the fight against the COVID-19, education during the lockdown, the healthcare sector – pioneers in the struggle, and people uniting to fight the pandemic.
This comes after the first version of a similar exhibition took place in Hanoi, with Hue serving as the occasion’s second venue. The photo exhibition is therefore scheduled to go on display in other cities and provinces nationwide in the near future.
The event is scheduled to last until July 19.
