Exhibition Praises Poetic Beauty of Hanoi
In "Down the Streets 4," artist Pham Binh Chuong explores Hanoi's timeless layers, combining the old and modern day in images of enduring city spirit. The exhibition marks 25 years since the artist began his path in realistic art and 20 years since he began presenting his "Down the Streets" series, which is dedicated entirely to Hanoi.

According to the artist, life in Hanoi is filled with gentle, harmonic tensions. This idea is powerfully developed in Pham Binh Chuong's "Down the Streets 4," which features layers of scenes and details. Beyond recognizable vistas, his painting displays Hanoi's rich, overlapping textures.

For Pham Binh Chuong, Hanoi appears to have everything an artist requires: an intriguing blend of ancient and modern, quiet and bustling, and the uniqueness of its four seasons.

Pham Binh Chuong's collection captures the "soul of the city" simply yet profoundly. Large-scale paintings, in particular, capture the spirit of Hanoi's changing cityscape, using wide strokes and symbolic subtleties to portray socioeconomic change in the capital. Scenes of French colonial buildings are juxtaposed with more modern metropolitan environments.

Swim Against the Current
It had been nearly a decade since I last picked up a novel - until the other day. The book is titled "Giữa những con sóng" (Between the Waves). It was written by Nguyễn Tuấn Thành and published by the Literature Publishing House in 2025. I haven’t read it yet, so I won’t talk about the story itself. Instead, I want to share a different story - one I call "Swim Against the Current".
